The Trumpington Residents’ Association was founded in 1992. In October 2008, it was established as a company limited by guarantee and in October 2010, it was entered in the Register of Charities.

The aim of the Association is to make Trumpington a better place for the future, by working to maintain and improve the quality of life of local residents. The Association is apolitical, encouraging input from everyone involved in Trumpington.

The Association has been working with the City, District and County Councils and developers to achieve the highest quality in the new housing, community, education and transport initiatives in the area. We have been actively involved in the design of the new developments on Clay Farm, Glebe Farm and Trumpington Meadows and welcoming new residents into an enlarged community. These developments include 3700 homes, primary schools, a community college, community facilities and country parks.

Membership

Membership of the Association is open to all residents of Trumpington. We welcome new members and look forward to your active involvement. Membership costs £5 a year for individual members and £8 a year for a household. If you are interested in joining, please complete the TRA Membership Form or contact the Membership Secretary. The Rules of the Association were updated in March 2021.

Meetings are held in the Jubilee Room, Trumpington Village Hall, on the last Wednesday in selective months, see the News page for current details. These include regular reports from the Committee and discussions of issues of interest or concern to members. The News page has the latest information.

From 2009 to March 2024, Trumpington Pavilion was administered by the Trumpington Residents’ Association in partnership with Cambridge City Council. From April 2024, the Pavilion will be managed by the City Council as part of the Clay Farm Centre.
