Charitable aims

As a registered charity, the Royal College of Physicians uses charitable support to fund research, training and conserve our heritage collections – all in the aim of improving health.

Legacies and donations from members and individuals provide an essential source of income.

Donate today

Support the RCP’s vital work to improve health and healthcare. An unrestricted donation allows us to respond flexibly when faced with urgent funding needs and emerging priorities.

The RCP promotes, advocates and campaigns on the issues that we know matter most to our members, including protected time for clinical research. Our current priority areas include health inequalities, air quality, obesity, and sustainability and climate change.

Your support helps influence the way that healthcare is designed and delivered in the future.

The RCP cares for books, manuscripts, artworks and objects of international significance relating to the lives and experiences of doctors.

Your support enables ambitious conservation projects, provides access to the collection through exhibitions and school tours, and preserves medical history and knowledge.

The RCP transforms healthcare by setting standards, and supporting the development and improvement of clinical services. Your support helps to improve the quality, outcomes, safety and experience of patient care.

The RCP delivers a wide range of projects aimed at strengthening health systems and improving medical standards across the globe.

Your support helps to deliver educational programmes and events to our members around the world and strengthen our partnerships with organisations such as the East, Central and Southern Africa College of Physicians (ECSACOP).

The RCP works to ensure that physicians are educated and trained to provide high-quality care throughout their careers.

Your support helps us to deliver excellent educational content to a global community of physicians while expanding access to education for underrepresented groups.
