Membership
IMPORTANT: Subscriptions for the 2024-25 year will be due in April. The fee is £15, unchanged from last year. We have managed to hold the cost by using gift aid to supplement our income. You can gift aid by filling in the appropriate form available at our monthly meeting. This allows us to claim 25% of the subscription back. You must be a UK tax payer. Subscriptions can be paid at the March, April, May and June monthly meetings. You can pay by cash, cheque or BACS to our account, please see details below. The last date to renew membership is the 4th June. After this date we are required by Data Protection Regulations to remove the names of those not renewing from our database, therefore those wishing to continue after the cutoff date will need to reapply for membership.
Horncastle u3a membership allows people to attend the monthly meetings, groups, trips, other events and includes four copies of the excellent newsletter. At just £15 a year it represents great value for money. Non-members are not entitled to attend these events and will not be covered by u3a insurance for such events.
I will be at the monthly meeting on Tuesday if anyone wishes to pay then. If you would like to discuss your membership renewal or have any queries please do not hesitate to contact me.
