A Word from our President
If you value the beauty and expressiveness of the English language, then the RSL is your Society, uniquely devoted to promoting and extending the knowledge and love of literature. But our work can never be taken for granted: we receive no public funding, and our subscription income goes only a small way to covering the costs of the programme of events we offer our Fellows and Members. We rely on the generosity of donors to help fund all that we do.
Our Patron scheme brings together people who want to help secure the future of the RSL, and to enable it to grow by developing our work in schools, building up the number of masterclasses we offer to writers,and extending our programme of talks,discussions and readings.
We offer our Patrons a series of special invitations and opportunities throughout the year. We hope they will also get great satisfaction from knowing that they are bringing real benefit through an organisation whose work has never been more important.
