Membership

Due to personal pressures, the committee members are experiencing due to the current situation with COVID a decision has been taken to partially close the society until at least 31st March 2021. Several key members of the committee must continue to self isolate for health reasons and this necessarily impacts on their ability to carry out their roles on the committee. The seed bank will continue to be closed as will membership. Any membership received during the closure will not be processed until the society is once more in full operation. All active memberships will be extended by a period of three months.

During the closure period, the committee will be updating the current website and will be bringing in a new membership database that will enhance the experience of members giving greater information and control.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding during this difficult period.
