Membership    Our voluntary membership scheme was started some years ago to help raise funds towards the printing and postage costs of the   newsletter.   We are grateful that so many of you have become members over the years  ………..……….but we could do with more ! The scheme runs for the calendar year and this has caused some confusion as our newsletters do not go out at the beginning of the year so we have been thinking of ways to improve the scheme. Each December, starting in  2009,  we will write to current members to let them know that membership renewals fall due the following January should they wish to renew………...…………we hope they will ! From January 2010 the membership fee will be increased to £12 per year (£6 minimum for non-wage earners), all  members  will  receive  a  membership card and a little gift from us and will be entitled to a 5% discount on their merchandise orders.     11 TO: Membership Secretary,  Greyhounds in Need, 33, High Street, Wraysbury, Middlesex TW19 5DA I should like to become a Member of Greyhounds in Need and I enclose my cheque/postal order/other for the annual fee of £10  (£5 minimum for non- wage earners ) to cover the period 1st January 2009 to 31st December 2009.
