400 Characters
A celebration of the people of Pembroke’s first four centuries, in just 400 characters.
Pembroke has played a part in the lives of many thousands of remarkable individuals who, through small deeds or great feats, have shaped both our College and the world around us. In this digital gallery, we highlight the unique experiences of some of the people who have, and are, contributing to our community.
Nominate a Pembrokian
Whether celebrated for milestone achievements, for generous service, or as friendly faces or community-builders, we would love to hear about special Pembroke characters known to you.
Thank you to the Helen Roll Charity for supporting this project.
