Glossop Guild
for enquiring minds

Enquiries to: info@glossopguild.org
 

You may use this page to join the Guild, to book a course and to pay on-line, all via a secure PayPal link.
New members and existing members will both benefit from reduced course fees.

We should be very grateful if as many Members as possible would arrange to pay by Standing Order, on 1st May each year.
This
arrangement was approved at our Annual General Meeting in April 2013 and has three advantages.

1.  It makes life much easier for the Treasurer and Membership Secretary, to keep tabs on our paid-up Membership.

2.  It ensures that funds are available for production and distribution of next year's Brochure and the premium on our Public Liability Insurance, at a time when funds from courses have yet to come in.

3.  It gives us a more reliable source of income, as we no longer need to rely on Members remembering to renew their Membership.

If you  are agreeable, please download and print an Application Form and Standing Order Mandate, send the Application Page to our Treasurer with a Stamped Addressed Envelope, so that he can acknowledge receipt, and return the Mandate Page directly to you bank.

Should you still prefer to pay by cheque or on-line, it would be very helpful if you could at least make a point of renewing your membership on 1st May each year.


Please ensure that you book Summer Courses early
, to avoid disappointment. The option to book on line will remain open for most courses, provided that there are places available.
