The Royal Society is one of the world's oldest scientific academies but our sights are set on the future. As we celebrate our 350th anniversary in 2010, we have developed an ambitious strategy in support of science, engineering and medicine for a rapidly changing world.

"For the first time in its history, our planet's fate depends on human actions and choices."

Lord Rees of Ludlow OM KT PRS, President of the Royal Society

To date the Society has made good progress towards its goal of raising over £100 million thanks to the generosity and vision of hundreds of donors who have supported a range of projects within the campaign.  We invite you to join us as we work to extend the revolution in science for the maximum benefit of the planet and its people.

We have developed five distinct anniversary goals. Each contains new or expanded activities that builds on our legacy and leverages our global network covering all areas of science, engineering and medicine. To learn more about each goal, please click on the images on the right.
