Supporting our students
Navigating the current cost of living crisis has had a considerable impact on the emotional and financial wellbeing of many of our students, particularly those who joined The Courtauld from lower socio-economic backgrounds.
We need your help to provide more students with financial aid via the Hardship Fund than ever before and develop crucial wellbeing and counselling programmes to support mental health.

Safeguarding The Courtauld’s collection
Our world-renowned collection is a treasure trove of paintings, works on paper and decorative arts spanning the medieval period to the present day. It includes world-famous Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings by the likes of Cézanne, Monet, Renoir and Van Gogh, as well as celebrated drawings by Michelangelo, Rembrandt, Turner and others.
