Annual Reviews
Each year we now produce an 'Annual Review' for Friends and Members, which incorporates a summary of our formal Year-end Report, plus what we hope are some interesting highlights of the year in question.
Previous Annual Reviews can be downloaded here:
Members and Friends are sent these annual reviews as soon as they are produced each summer, and have an opportunity to attend our AGM each October and raise any issues.
If you would like to become a Friend, you can read more on our Join Us page, and then complete the application form.

Sawston Stomp, Thursday 10th October
Notice of Event: 1000 pupils to picnic on Magog Down!
As part of their Greener programme—encouraging a greater appreciation of our natural world, the value of sustainable living and the need to pursue a carbon neutral lifestyle– and Active Week—promoting the value of activity to the physical and mental wellbeing of all– Sawston Village College will be completing their annual "Sawston Stomp" on Thursday 10 October 2019.
This is a Sponsored Walk. Pupils will be walking from Sawston Village College across the fields in Stapleford and on to Magog Down. En route a mass litter pick will take place. Pupils will be arriving in their Houses – 250 pupils and 25 staff each – for lunch at the far end of the North Down.
Part of the money raised will be donated to the Magog Trust in support of this area and our mutual commitment to promoting the value of the natural world.
The Trustees of the Magog Trust are delighted to have given permission for this walk to take place.

Old Newsletters
Up until 2011 we produced a twice-yearly Newsletter, and you can still download copies of some of these here:
In 2011 the re-designed website was launched, and so the decision was taken to stop producing these Newsletters, and instead to use this website as the main means of communication for news and articles of interest.
This move away from a regular Newsletter meant that more of the Members' and Friends' subscriptions could be spent directly on the costs of upkeep and husbandry on the Down.
We would love every regular visitor to Magog Down to help support its upkeep by becoming a Friend. Read more on our Join Us page, and then complete the application form.
