Payment can then be made online via  BACS, or by sending a cheque to the Membership Secretary. Many members choose to set up a Standing Order from their bank which means they do not need to manually renew their membership each year.
 

Due Date

Annual Membership subscriptions are due from 1st April every year. Subscriptions are either Full Year on any date between 1st April to 30th September, or Half Year at any date between 1st October and 31st March.

Standing Orders must commence from 1st April. Half Year subscriptions are one off payments and are therefore not payable by Standing Order.
