At the specific wish of the Patron,
the aim for the future is for membership to be widened so
as to be as inclusive as possible for the whole officer
corps of the Naval Service:
-
Any serving or retired officers of the
Naval Service or their Reserve Services are
eligible for membership.
-
Any wardroom victualled civilian of any nationality who has served at BRNC
for a period of more than ten days is eligible for
membership.
-
Any officer of a Foreign Naval Service who has
served at BRNC for more than ten days are eligible
for membership.
-
Naval officers widows and widowers may also be
members in all categories.
There are currently 5 categories of full
membership:-
-
100 Founder life memberships a
limit at any one time - replaceable only through a
vacancy occurring against a one-off
subscription/donation of £500 (inclusive of joining
administration fee) structured as Gift Aid.
Endowment membership against a one off subscription of
£350 inclusive of joining fee and structured as gift
aid. -
Life memberships for a
one off subscription/donation of £200 (inclusive of
joining administration fee) also structured as Gift
Aid.
-
International officer life
membership at £100 (not yet available)
-
An annual membership at a
subscription of £12.85 (reduced to £10 if made by
variable direct debit and as Gift Aid) - this rebate
is made in recognition of saved administration costs
to the Charity. Joiners under this scheme are required
to pay a one-off joining fee equivalent to the first
year's subscription, against which the same discount
efficiency applies if structured as Gift Aid and made
as part of the subscription variable direct debit
(i.e. it too is then £10).
