How to become a member
The Club is pleased to welcome new members. Application forms are available from the Company Secretary.
According to the Rules of the Club, two sponsors are required who have been members of the club for at least one year. However, if this is not possible applicants are asked to provide two acceptable references.
In due course, applicants are invited to attend the club for an interview with a Director or Directors on a date suitable to them and for which sufficient notice is given.
