How to Join our Club

To join, you can come along to one of our Monthly Meetings, enjoy the evening for free and if you like what you see, join there and then.  Similarly, try one of our Observing Sessions and join at the event.

It's very easy to join online (and is our preferred method) so just let us know by completing an Enquiry Form and our Membership Secretary will contact you directly via your email address and set the process in motion.

If you have any questions and would like to speak to someone first, please use our online Enquiry Form and we will get back to you.


We are looking forward to welcoming you as a Member.
