Cambridge Assessment and Cambridge University Press joined forces last night, 7 May, to pay tribute to key workers taking part in efforts to tackle Covid-19.

The newly built Triangle tower (Cambridge Assessment’s international headquarters), the iconic architectural structure of University Printing House, and the 200 year-old Pitt Building (the current and former global headquarters for Cambridge University Press respectively) were illuminated in blue to show appreciation.
