How To Join

You are welcome to come along to meetings as a visitor before you decide whether to join or not. Visitors are charged a fee of £5 per visit per person, paid on arrival by cash or bank card.

If you enjoy the meetings and wish to join, we offer the following membership types:

Membership Types

  • Single – defined as one adult (18+).
  • Joint – defined as two adults (18+) living at the same address.
  • Junior – defined as one person under the age of 18. Juniors must be accompanied at all times by a responsible adult (18+)
  • SEN – defined as an adult diagnosed with Special Educational Needs. SEN adults may require the support of their carers at meetings. This can be agreed on an individual basis

The club meets twice a month, usually at Thatcham Town Football Club, Waterside Park, Crookham Hill, Thatcham, Berkshire RG19 4PA. In the warmer drier weather, some meetings are held as field trips where we go out and about as a group with our cameras.
