Cambridge Matters is our magazine for residents. It’s packed with the latest information about council services.
A paper copy of the magazine is delivered to all households in Cambridge. Let us know if you don’t receive it – we can post another one to you.
The information in the magazine is correct at the time of printing, but some information might have changed since then.
The next edition of Cambridge Matters will be delivered to households across Cambridge in March 2027.
Autumn 2026
The new-look autumn 2026 issue of Cambridge Matters, with a refreshed design and format, includes articles about:
- the recently-opened Arbury Social café in the north of the city – where community is always on the menu
- ways we’re working with partners to protect and restore the River Cam and the city’s waterways
- attending this year’s fireworks display on Midsummer Common and some great festive shows coming up at the Corn Exchange
- the local residents who have sponsored new trees being planted in Cambridge parks and open spaces
- everyday plastic wrappers, bags and films you can recycle in your blue bins (despite what the packaging might say)
- and much more!

The summer 2026 issue includes articles about:
- our Hello Summer season of activities for children and families across the school holidays
