As the holiday season approaches, why not make your gifts count by offering something unique which keeps giving all year round?

RSA Fellowship provides your lucky recipient the chance to join a global community focused on supporting connection, learning and turning world-class ideas into action. By gifting RSA Fellowship, you’re not just giving an ordinary present, you’re forging opportunities for growth and collaboration with others. RSA Fellowship gives its recipients a sense of empowerment and significance, an appealing gift for those who value transformative experiences for a loved one. 

Why does RSA Fellowship stand out?

Whether it’s for a friend, family member or colleague, our Fellowship is a dynamic and diverse community of creative visionaries worldwide. You’re giving your loved one access to a wide variety of expertise, connections and experiences to inspire their personal and professional growth.

What are the benefits of being an RSA Fellow?

As part of the RSA Fellowship, Fellows are the first to hear about events and thought-provoking webinars, gaining access to a wealth of opportunities to explore and utilise expertly curated RSA research and resources.

This isn’t just about membership; it’s about collaborative, dynamic growth. Fellows can exclusively sign up for our Young Fellows Mentoring Programme, a dynamic, cross-generational exchange for both mentors and mentees. Build skills, share insights, and make valuable connections to achieve your aspirations.

Plus, becoming an RSA Fellow means access to a global online community of 31,000 innovators and experts on Circle, exclusively for Fellows. Circle is a gateway to connecting and collaborating with Fellows both locally and globally. On Circle, you can:

  1. Share incredible work with the Fellowship and discover people who share your passions
  2. Join interest-based micro-communities that align with your interests
  3. Stay informed about upcoming RSA events
  4. Have insights to share? Submit your ideas to be considered for the award-winning RSA Journal every quarter
  5. Use secure direct messaging to safely connect with other Fellows and spark new ideas and partnerships.

What else does the Fellowship offer?

Fellows enjoy a host of benefits, including the RSA House in London, a home away from home. RSA House is a creative sanctuary featuring a library, inspiring meeting spaces, and the luxurious Muse bar serving up sustainable cocktails with British ingredients. Whether they’re looking to chat, work, study or simply relax, the RSA provides a welcoming space for creativity and collaboration. The RSA has also partnered with a variety of coworking spaces nationwide, offering you flexible options wherever you are, available to Fellows at no cost!

Not sure how to give the gift of Fellowship? There are two impactful ways to share this opportunity.

  • The Pay Fellowship Forward initiative allows donors to contribute any amount toward a collective fund supporting individuals who cannot afford the cost of membership.
  • Alternatively, you can gift a Fellowship directly to someone you know, perhaps a loved one or colleague who would benefit from joining this extraordinary community. The RSA Fellowship isn’t just a thoughtful gift; it opens doors to lifelong learning showing someone you value their potential to make a difference.

This season, go beyond material gifts. Give the gift of inspiration and invite someone to join a movement for global social change.
