More than 500 Unite members at the University of Cambridge, including library, museum, estates, finance, student services and IT staff, will strike again on 30 April and 1 May. The union says workers need a local ‘Cambridge weighting’ supplement to address high living costs, rejecting the university’s imposed 1.4% pay rise as a real‑terms cut.
