We have added the option for members to pay quarterly as well as annually.

We are also taking the opportunity to bring our records up to date and to ensure that we are fully GDPR compliant. For that reason, we are asking everyone to complete a new Membership Application Form even if they are an existing member or have only just filled one in recently. Joint members need only fill in one form and tick the joint member box.
