Free memberships for individuals facing barriers to inclusion
We recognise the barriers faced by individuals with protected characteristics in the workplace, and this year our Members Support Fund is offering 200 fully-funded memberships (worth £52 each) to individuals who face barriers due to:
- Ethnicity
- Disability
- Socio-economic background*
- Gender identity or sexual orientation (LGBTQ+)
*Socio-economic background in this context does not refer to your current financial situation. You may have faced barriers due to your socio-economic background if, for example, you received free school meals, received income support while at school or your parents did not have a university degree.
Inclusive memberships offer access to our online content, regular free webinars and discounts on event places, and our Museum Essentials online learning courses, plus all the usual essential membership benefits.
Inclusive memberships are available to new members only. Due to the terms of our Members Support Fund, inclusive memberships are only available to individuals based in the UK.
Applications for 2025-26 are now closed.
