What happened to the family membership?
In the new scheme all family members will need to take up their own individual membership packages.
One of the reasons for this change is that the previous family membership was not always working fairly as we found from research that 50% of individuals holding a family membership actually had no children under 18 in their family!
If you want to link your membership to a member of your family and / or want to ensure you get email or mail on behalf of your child, please call our Membership services on 0845 873 7202 who will be able to record the information.
