About Cambridge University for Reproductive Rights
Cambridge University for Reproductive Rights (est. 2022) is a forum for students to learn about, discuss, and campaign for reproductive rights - including abortion; contraception; fertility treatment; parenting rights; reproductive, maternal, and trans healthcare; and sex education. We are a non-partisan and evidence-based group, bringing together people from any gender, background, or political home to explore and support reproductive rights.
To keep up with our events and campaigns, follow us on social media, sign up to our mailing list, and buy membership for an absolute steal at £5 for life!
