Subs.

​

Members pay subs to cover the cost of the rehearsal room, hire of music etc. Subs are £60 per year paid from September or £20 per term. If you pay after 31 December the full yearly rate is increased to £65. There is a 75% reduction offered to full time students. Student rates will therefore be £15 full rate and £5 termly.

 

Since the 2006 AGM we have adopted a constitution and now have charitable status. This means we are able to claim tax back on fees paid by UK tax payers.

Committee Governance
