Newnham College is a women's constituent college of the University of Cambridge.^[4]

The college was founded in 1871 by a group organising Lectures for Ladies, members of which included philosopher Henry Sidgwick and suffragist campaigner Millicent Garrett Fawcett. It was the second women's college to be founded at Cambridge, following Girton College. The College celebrated its 150th anniversary^[5] throughout 2021 and 2022.
