Queens' was well-represented at the CUDAR Dear World, Yours Cambridge campaign event last Monday in the Natural History Museum.
The Queens' table, hosted by Development Director Rowan Kitt, included two Footlights members, current students Joy Hunter and Leo Reich, who performed in various sketches. They were joined by John Liver (1983), Julie Edwards (1986), Stefano Quadrio Curzio (1984), Nigel Grimshaw (1971) and Dr Francesca Beausang-Hunter (1997). Other Queens' alumni at the event included Dr Trish Turner (1983), Dr Ewan Kirk (1983) and Sir David Walker (1958).
The event thanked donors for their support so far, as the campaign as reached £1.4 billion, and hopes to encourage future philanthropy. Speakers at the event included Sir David Attenborough (Clare, 1945) and Dr Mohammed El-Erian (Queens', 1977), co-Chair of the Collegiate University fundraising campaign.
