For nearly a century, The British Friends of the Hebrew University has proudly supported the University’s development aimed at research academic excellence, benefiting students and scholars both in Israel and the UK. We continue to honour the University’s remarkable achievements and look forward to marking its centenary in June 2025.

“The University, whilst trying to maintain the highest scientific level, must, at the same time, be rendered accessible to all classes of the people…the doors of our libraries, lecture rooms and laboratories must be opened widely to them all”

Chaim Weizmann, at the laying of the cornerstones of the Hebrew University on Mount Scopus 24 July 1918

The British Friends of the Hebrew University support student and academic collaboration, helping where possible with scholarships and bursaries and more broadly promote the University’s achievements.
