On Monday, Professor Tim Lang, will deliver the 2024 Cooks' Company Lecture, 'Cooking up civil food resilience: food skills for food system shocks.' This lecture will consider what food resilience means for a country such as the UK. It will focus on how the public might respond and aftershocks rather than the efforts made to prevent shocks. We need more attention on ‘what if?’ factors. What if supplies are significantly disrupted? What if the public has to face very different food conditions? The lecture proposes a focus on Civil Food Resilience to give more attention to the public and society itself. This shift of focus means we have to think more about equal needs and uneven realities. Tim Lang is Emeritus Professor of Food Policy at City University London's Centre for Food Policy in 2021. The lecture will be introduced by Virginia Bond, a past Master of the Cooks' Company.

Pembroke Short Courses - Coping with grief This 2-hour open seminar is designed to help your team through grief. We all experience grief, but many teams struggle to talk about it in a way that’s open and helpful for everyone. This can lead to misunderstanding, isolation, stress, project delays and long-term illness. By creating a culture based on clarity, courage and compassion, teams can better support each other through difficult times without getting overwhelmed by their own or each other’s feelings and workloads. This training is aimed at leaders, managers and supervisors who would like to better understand how to support their teams and colleagues through grief. The session will be run by Aryanisha Lawes, a coach, Pembroke alumna and Ordained Buddhist. She helps smart leaders and their teams leave the world a better place than they found it, without getting sick from stress. After the session, she'll help you refine a three-point plan specific to your team in a confidential 1:1 call. 📆 Tuesday 19 November 2024 🕚 9.00 AM - 11.00 AM 📌 Pembroke College, Pembroke College Cambridge 💷 £99 + VAT per person Book your place by emailing hr@pem.cam.ac.uk or call Pembroke's HR team on 01223 764577. #PembrokeShortCourses #CPD

Today we welcomed our new freshers to the College. To mark the start of the 40th anniversary year of the admission of women to Pembroke, cards with welcome messages from Pembroke alumnae have been left in the rooms of the female freshers. Featuring artwork by local artist Naomi Davies, the notes include anecdotes, inspiring stories and words of guidance, comfort and advice. The programme of events will be included in the bags handed out to Freshers after they have signed the Matriculation Book on Thursday, and placed in the pidges of returning students. 1 - The artwork by Naomi Davies 2 - A card awaiting a student in their room 3 - The front of the 40 Years of Women at Pembroke Programme, featuring the logo designed by postgraduate student Lucy Xu @luckie13 4 - Freshers arriving on Moving In Day #PembrokeCollegeCambridge #Freshers2024 #40YearsOfWomenAtPembroke
