Fundraising activities for the Charity of the Month included a ‘dress as you did as a teenager’ day, a ‘Guess Who’s the Teenager’ photo quiz and bucket collections in the Grand Arcade.
Decades from the 70s onwards were covered during the dress down day which saw some fashion favourites make a comeback including flares, bum bags and a Wham! briefcase.

The winner of the ‘Guess Who’ photo quiz won two day passes to the Health Spa at the Cambridge Quy Mill Hotel & Spa which were kindly donated by the hotel.
A team of five also took part in the Spartan run to raise an extra £865 for the cause.
Activities for the month were led by Risk and Governance Officer Kevin Hurley and Branch Sales Adviser James Mills who did an excellent job in enthusing colleagues to get behind the charity.
A society-wide challenge to see which team could collect the most 20p coins in Smarties tubes was very popular with the winning team treated to a champagne punt which was generously donated by Scudamore’s.
Kevin, who was one of the five Spartan runners, said: “James and I really enjoyed thinking of different ways to raise money and awareness for the charity.
“We’re really grateful that Scudamore’s and Quy Mill generously got on board as this gave people an extra incentive to get involved.
“The work of Teenage Cancer Trust is so vital and we’re pleased to be able to help raise awareness and some much needed funding for this important charity.”
Regional Fundraiser for Teenage Cancer Trust Judith Anderson collected a cheque for £2,079.40 from The Cambridge’s Head Office on Friday 6th November.
She said: “It has been an absolute pleasure supporting The Cambridge team, with their month of fundraising. Young people aged between 13 and 24, diagnosed with cancer are traditionally treated alongside children, or elderly patients at the end of their lives, making them feel extremely isolated, some never meeting another young person with cancer.
“Being treated alongside others their own age can make a huge difference to their whole experience. Teenage Cancer Trust leads the world in the care of young people with cancer.
“Together with these young people, their families and the passion of our supporters, we’re challenging healthcare to improve and transform lives. It’s great to have the support and enthusiasm of The Cambridge Building Society to help us.”
