The Cambridge Gliding Centre is a gliding club flying from Gransden Lodge Airfield, where it moved to, from Duxford Airport, in October 1991.

Formerly known as the Cambridge University Gliding Club it became known as the Cambridge Gliding Club in the mid-nineties. In 2006 the club began trading as the Cambridge Gliding Centre.

The Cambridge Gliding Centre operates a fleet of four two-seat basic trainer and five single seater gliders, and facilities for both winch launch and aerotow operations.
