Benefits of Membership
Members receive a
Newsletter, published six times a year, containing details of new label issues,
forthcoming events, articles concerned with the history and various other
aspects of labels, label design and the hobby of collecting.
Members of the Society may advertise via the Newsletter free of charge, if the
advert does not exceed a maximum number of words, exclusive of name and
address. Where an advert exceeds this number a charge for every extra word is
made.
Members may, at the Society's discretion, include material for distribution
with the Newsletter.
All preparation will be the responsibility of the person(s) submitting such
material.
Members have the opportunity to purchase labels, mostly donated by breweries in
aid of our Label of the Year charities, which are offered for sale via the
Newsletter.
Members have the opportunity to attend our meetings to join other collectors
for the purposes of exchanging labels and or socialising. These are also the
venue for occasional auctions of labels which are only available only in
limited quantities.
Members have the opportunity to purchase labels from our sales stand, which is
present at all of our meetings.
Members will have access to the private areas of the Society's web site for
current newsletters and label sales. [This facility is still under development]
