      As an Open City Friend your donations will help make London more open, accessible and equitable.

      • Your support will enable life-changing educational programmes for children and young people from under-represented communities
      • Your donations will support the Open House Festival, allowing tens of thousands of people access to places and conversations they are normally locked out of
      • Your contribution will help open up critical debate on the big issues that shape the urban landscape today by supporting Open City’s year-round programme of free podcasts, films and advocacy

      We also have a Friend of Open City Gift Box for a larger welcome gift at the start of the scheme. If you'd like to know more about the Friends scheme, its benefits and how we use your money, email friends@open-city.org.uk or visit this page.

      Gift Aid is an income tax relief designed to benefit charities. If you're a UK taxpayer, Gift Aid increases the value of your charity donations by 25% because as a charity we can reclaim the basic rate of tax on your gift at no extra cost to you. Should you opt in we will start collecting Gift Aid once your donation becomes eligible.

      With a little help from our friends...

      Thanks to your support, Open City can...

      Ensure over 100+ young people a year from backgrounds historically excluded from architecture and design can access skills development and mentoring through Accelerate.

      Open up over 800 of London's buildings and spaces through the Open House Festival.

      Introduce over 2,000 children at Primary and SEND Schools to architecture who would not otherwise have the opportunity through Young City Makers.
