Membership is open to anyone interested in bryophytes. Detailed knowledge of the subject is not required and there is no entrance fee. If you wish to join, read the information below about methods of payment, and use either of two methods:

• either complete an application form, and post with your payment to the Membership Secretary (address below);
• or complete a credit card application which will be emailed directly to the Membership Secretary. (NB - emailed, so not a secure link)
  
  If you live in the UK and pay tax, please also complete and submit the gift aid declaration, to allow us to reclaim the tax on your subscription.
