Cambridge and The Great War: How the City Survived – Part 1

Leigh Chambers examines how Cambridge took part in the preparations for war and why and how Cambridgeshire men signed up. We’ll hear from Bryan Harris whose family were members of the Cherry Hinton sect of Plymouth Brethren and conscientious objectors. We’ll also take a look at the role of women during these years and how their increased activity in the workplace supported their fight for suffrage.

Newsreader: Tony Barnfield
Producer: Neil Whiteside

Securing the future of Community Radio

Cambridge 105 Radio is the Community broadcaster for the city and South Cambridgeshire.

Our brief is to give a voice to those sometimes excluded from traditional media. And the presenters you hear on air are all volunteers themselves who give up their time for free. We do it because we believe our perspective matters – because it might well be your perspective, too.

If everyone who listens to our shows, our podcasts, the businesses we feature, helps to pay for it, our future would be much more secure.

You can support Cambridge 105 Radio by giving monthly or by making a one-off contribution.
