Community Membership
About Community Membership
Being a Community Member is a show of support for the work the ACT does and gives you the chance to influence how the Trust works. We have recently introduced a regular Community Members E-Newsletter. Members will also receive “early bird” access to any special events and activities that ACT are delivering.
Some Groups may also be able to benefit from our extra package of support called “Community HQ”. Please see below for further details.
The Community Membership fee lasts for for one year and is valid until the end of the next AGM (24th November 2026)
