The AGM Notice and member fee papers were updated on Thursday 8 May 2025 to make corrections to two member categories:

  • The newly ed discount was correctly stated as 35% however the monetary value assigned to the 35% was incorrectly stated (2025-2026 fees £201.87/£16.82, yearly difference -£21.15, monthly difference -£1.77).
  • The Associate Apprentice percentage increase was incorrectly stated as +3% (now +4.5%). The monetary values remain the same.
