Big Give Christmas Challenge 2025

At Guildhall School we’re excited to once again be joining the Big Give Christmas Challenge, giving our generous donors the opportunity to make their support go further, and boost their impact for our students.

Last year our Big Give campaign supporters helped us to surpass our target, so, inspired by their belief in our students, we’re aiming higher. We are aiming to raise £127,000 in scholarship support for our students. 

Every £1 donated via our campaign webpage between noon on Tuesday 2 December and noon on Tuesday 9 December will be doubled at no extra cost to the donor, while match funding lasts. 

Together, our goal is to ensure that every Guildhall student can fully immerse themselves in their training without financial constraints, allowing them to unleash their potential and make an indelible mark on the cultural landscape. To break financial barriers, we offer transformational scholarships based on merit and financial need, turning dreams into reality and empowering exceptionally talented applicants to join one of the world's top performing arts conservatoires.

Learn more via our Big Give webpage now, or visit between noon 2 December and noon on 9 December to donate to our campaign. Please also share our information with friends and family who may want to support the next generation of extraordinary artists. 

If you have any questions about the Big Give, please get in touch with Zoe Jennings at zoe.jennings@gsmd.ac.uk / +44 (0) 20 4582 2415.

We are very grateful to the Reed Foundation and three generous supporters who share a belief in the talent and drive of our students for matching donations to our Big Give Christmas Challenge.
