As mentioned in the Treasurer’s AGM annual report , the NEC agreed to increase membership fees by 3.5 percent in 2026 due to the increase in expenditure and reduced income from recruitment advertising which is insufficient to sustain an operating surplus. The new subscription rates from 1st January 2026 will be:
Full membership: £24.50 (monthly) / £294 (annually)
Affiliate membership: £12.75 (monthly) / £153 (annually)
Assistant member: £15.50 (monthly) / £186 (annually)
Retired membership: £3.75 (monthly) / £45 (annually)
Trainee membership: £4.25 (monthly) / £51 (annually)
Members will receive notification of this increase shortly.
