About the Linnean Society
As the UK’s premier society for natural history, we provide a unique and valued forum for nature enthusiasts to share diverse experiences and interests. We care for our beautiful collections so that they can be used as an inspiration for those new to nature as well as a rich resource for historical research to inform our knowledge about the world. Our journals publish cutting-edge research about the natural world. We value our focus on education to safeguard the understanding and protection of nature for generations to come.
The Society is often described as a ‘hidden gem’, with a small but highly valued audience. However, given the dangers facing the natural world today, our community of nature enthusiasts has never been more needed. We have aspirations to grow and diversify our membership, open up our building to new audiences, expand our education and public programmes, invest in research grants, and so much more. Having recently secured our historic home in Burlington House for the next 999 years, launched a new strategy and revamped our governing documents, we have a strong and stable foundation upon which to build an ambitious programme of activity.
