Parliamentary Patrons
Become a Parliamentary Patron and help us to expand our work to support the cause of parliamentary democracy
Parliamentarians can support the work of the Hansard Society by becoming a Parliamentary Patron. Our Patrons scheme recognises parliamentarians who join the Society or who make regular donations.
Why become a Patron?
The Hansard Society is a unique organisation because it is the charity for Parliament itself. Because the Society is a charity, we need to raise funds constantly to support our work. We achieve a great deal with very limited resources.
By becoming a Parliamentary Patron, you can help us to expand our work to support the cause of parliamentary democracy. This will not only help us to increase our effectiveness but also signify your support for our aims.
Our Parliamentary Patrons scheme recognises parliamentarians who:
join the Society (with the option to make an additional donation); or
who make regular donations (but do not take up formal membership).
As a Parliamentary Patron your name will be acknowledged on our website and in our Annual Report.
Patron: Member
You can support the Society by becoming a member, with the option to add a one-off or regular donation if you wish. As a member you can:
enjoy an annual subscription to our journal, Parliamentary Affairs;
receive discounts and priority booking for our events and training programmes;
participate in our Annual General Meeting.
As a Parliamentary Patron your name will be acknowledged on our website and in our Annual Report.
Patron: Donor
You can make a one-off or regular donation to the Society without becoming a member. Your support will help us:
augment our research funding, giving us flexibility to comment on topical issues;
expand our training and education programmes about Parliament;
provide concessions for the young / low-waged.
As a Parliamentary Patron your name will be acknowledged on our website and in our Annual Report.
