​
The current full adult membership fee is £150. Full senior membership is available, as is full Junior membership, both at a reduced fee.
A further reduction of the full membership fee can be obtained by members taking part in 'work parties'. These take place several times a year and cover activities such as maintenance of firing points and butts, target frames and target huts, cutting back branches and shrubs, removing dead tree limbs, painting and general repair work. If you have a specialist skill that would benefit the Club, please let the Chief Range Officer know.
Currently members can claim up to a £30 reduction on their membership fee for their attendance at work parties.
