Corporate Membership

The total annual cost of running our programmes is £400,000. Much of this, particularly for the schools education and outreach programme, is funded by donations from corporate and individual members. Donors receive special mention in publications and on the website. Donations may be designated all, or in part, in support of education activities.

All staff of corporate members and their families enjoy the usual benefits of membership and may attend events as members.

We can send email information to anyone listed by you, as well as supply multiple copies of our printed publicity and news materials to a central address. Some (mainly by invitation only) events involve CEOs and we should be grateful if you would supply his or her name also.
