Trustees | Sir John Soane's Museum

In 1833 Soane negotiated an Act of Parliament (3° Gul.IV, Cap.iv) to settle and preserve the house and collection for the benefit of ‘amateurs and students’ in architecture, painting and sculpture. On his death in 1837 the Act came into force, vesting the Museum in a board of Trustees who were to continue to uphold Soane’s own aims and objectives. The 1833 Act was superseded in 1969 by The Charities (Sir John Soane’s Museum) Order (1969 No.468), revised a number of times up to 2022. As stipulated in the 1833 Act and the 1969 Charity Order, as revised, our Board of Trustees is made up of up to fourteen Trustees including five Representative Trustees from: the Royal Society, the Court of Aldermen of the City of London, the Society of Antiquaries of London, the Royal Society of Arts, and the Royal Academy of Arts. The Chair is appointed by the Board. Appointments are generally made for a term of five years, and may be renewed once for a further term of the same length. Trustee vacancies are advertised widely in order to reach as diverse an audience as possible.
