Will absolutely say that seeing St Cuthbert's coffin is something else. Also Artfund gets you half price entry into the Magna Cartas exhibition.

Royal Academy don't get direct funding from HM Government.
They do benefit from a 999 year lease on Burlington House @£1 a year signed in 1860s.
RA don't make regular acquisitions for collection, so don't get grants from Artfund to purchase stuff. So no obvious reason to give big AF member discount.

This was today's outing. Artfund and Network card made it a cheap day out - bit underwhelmed by the exhibition, plus forgotten how crowded galleries get on a Saturday. Death mask neat though.

My Teacher #ArtFund card at £25 has been the biggest bargain of this year and possibly any year. I am not a car fan though the OH is, and I didn't want to pay £27 for Beaulieu Motor Museum- free on the card! And the non-car elements of Beaulieu are lovely. I've already had at least £100 of entries
