Governance

HM The Queen is Patron of the British School at Rome.

HRH Princess Alexandra, the Hon. Lady Ogilvy, KG, GCVO, is President of the BSR.

The BSR’s governing body (trustees) is the President and the Council.

The Director, Professor Abigail Brundin, acts as the BSR’s Chief Executive.

Under the terms of the Royal Charter, Council members are appointed by the Council. At least seven members must be selected from the fields of specialisation and work enshrined in the BSR’s objectives.

Council is advised by two faculties and a subcommittee: the Faculty of Archaeology, History and Letters, the Faculty of the Fine Arts and the Architecture Advisory Committee.

Council members can be contacted via the Registrar, Dr Gill Clark.
