Support us
As a registered charity (no 208791), we rely on your generosity.
Find out how you can support our work in advancing geographical knowledge and continuing our independent, innovative and inspirational work.
Why your support matters
For nearly 200 years we have worked to share understanding and knowledge of our planet, care for our precious Collections and inspire the next generation to become advocates for our world.
Your support will change our understanding of the planet.
Geography is, in the broadest sense, an education for life and for living. Learning through geography – whether gained through formal learning or experientially through travel or fieldwork and expeditions – helps us all to be more socially and environmentally sensitive, better informed, and more responsible as citizens.
No matter how much you give, each and every gift we receive helps us all better understand our world.

There are many ways in which you can support the Society and help us support geographical research, education, and fieldwork and expeditions.
