Members will also be invited to special Founding Circle events and opportunities to engage with the project as it progresses.

Your place in the Society's history

To recognise the generosity of those helping to make this transformation possible, Founding Circle members who wish to be acknowledged will be included in a special Book of Benefactors.

Created to mark the refurbishment of the Lecture Theatre and preserved within the Society's collections, this commemorative book will provide a permanent record of those who helped secure its future.

Join our Founding Circle and help create a space for discovery for generations to come.
