Help us raise £8.5 million to transform the Central Hall. We urgently need your support to redevelop this space, refurbish its priceless contents and showcase our star specimens amid the spectacular architecture.

The Central Hall welcomes nearly 5 million people into the Museum every year. It is the start of a journey of natural discovery for those that enter it. With these essential renovations we will create a more exhilarating and inspirational space. Visitors will be enthused to explore more of our fascinating collections.

Patrons of the Annual Fund are very special to us.

In exchange for your support you will receive:

  • a Patron membership card
  • 10 complimentary tickets for family members and friends
  • opportunities to meet the Museum scientists and curators who care for our valuable collections
