Further support in recent years has come from University of Cambridge Active Community Fund and Society Syndicate, Isaac Newton Trust, The Golden Bottle Trust, BT Community Awards, and a number of Cambridge Colleges.

In addition, the Isaac Newton Trust and Cambridge Careers Service have supported interns carrying out activities at the Centre for Global Equality.
