  Important Membership Renewal

This year we plan to manage the payment of subscriptions a little differently. These become due on the 1st January for 2026. In the past we have asked for a separate payment to cover the cost but this year we plan to debit members accounts automatically and this will show on your account along with your payments.

 

We will be debiting all current members accounts unless you advise one of the trustees that you are not renewing your membership with us next year. The cost for membership has remained at £20 for the year.

 

The above debit will be done early in the new year so please be aware of this and ideally credit your account in anticipation. We hope that all existing members will be renewing. 

 

Many thanks.
 

The Trustees
