Becoming a member
As we continue to set up the association, we are unable to offer memberships online. If you would like to be a member, keep your eye out for an upcoming annual general meeting or special general meeting where you will have the opportunity to join.
We currently do not charge members while we get things organised. Membership pricing will be announced shortly before or during our next meeting.
If you are interested in being a member and would like to assist us in the meantime, please reach out to any member of the @management_committee via direct message. We are currently looking for members who are one or more of the following:
- interested in constructing media releases
- have a legal background and are able to provide advice to the association
- engaged members of the community
FAQ

If you are a frequent user of the forum and believe in the goals and objectives of the organisation, we highly encourage you to become a member.
Running the forum is costly, so we rely on paying members to stay up and running. Our members are vital in ensuring we can continue to provide a safe place for interested members of the public to get involved in our mission.
Members are also able to vote at annual general meetings and participate in the working and management committee of the organisation. This gives you the opportunity to shape the future of the association.
How are fees decided?
Membership fees are carefully considered by the Treasurer to ensure that we are able to keep the forum and organisation up and running.
