Joining Ipswich Wildlife Group

As a member of Ipswich Wildlife Group:

• you get the opportunity to take part in a very wide range of activities to help your local environment
• receive a regular newsletter or email updates featuring local wildlife news, articles and events run by many conservation groups
• the chance to get out on sites and work to keep fit – a natural gym session
• learn new skills both informally “on the job” and via formal training courses
• attend social events and talks
• help apply for grants to improve local wildlife areas
• and you can help to shape the local environment for the better, through our input and influence on local bodies such as the Environment Protection Panel, River Action Group, and Greenways Project.

The Group also benefits from your membership in the following ways:
Each member gives IWG more influence and credibility; the more members we have, the more likely we are to get successful grant applications; every new member brings new ideas and is a potential new committee member; the more members we have, the more volunteers we should have helping at events and practical tasks.

IWG annual membership fees – which give you voting rights at the AGM – are detailed below:

Individual		£5.00
Family		£ 7.50
Unwaged		£1.00
Group		£10.00

Please print out and complete the membership form. At the moment payment is only possible by cheque, made payable to “Ipswich Wildlife Group”.

Sent your cheques and completed forms to: The Treasurer, Ipswich Wildlife Group, c/o The Stable Block, Holywells Park, Cliff Lane, Ipswich. IP3 0PG

If you prefer not to become a full paying member, you can instead become a supporter: you will still receive updates with details of all the events, but have no voting rights at the AGM. Becoming a supporter of IWG costs nothing, just send us your contact details, and we’ll add you to the mailing list. We’ll then contact you when each new newsletter comes out, and with occasional other updates.
