Renewal for 2025 via the website
Dear members

For those of you who renew your membership via the website we are in the process of making changes which will enable UK members (excluding Northern Ireland) to order your free members plants/plugs either for collection from a nominated nursery or also pay to have them posted to you. This will be in one PayPal transaction for membership and free plug Post and Packing.

THIS WILL ONLY BE LIVE FROM 1st NOVEMBER to 31st JANUARY!!

There is no change in subscription levels for next year, so no need to renew early to beat the price rises!!
