We welcome
societies whose objectives we share and respect.
NCW develops its views partly by consulting experts in the field, and we
find much expertise in the many societies who are already affiliated. We
believe societies also benefit from NCW’s wider perspectives and the
contacts that affiliation can bring. Representatives from Affiliated
Societies, along with branch and regional representatives make up the
membership of our specialist committees.
Affiliates'
meetings are held three times a year, two in London and one in the
Midlands. They are usually timed for noon to 3pm. Representatives
benefit from meeting each other, as well as receiving an update on NCW's
work. There is always a relevant focus theme, with input from an
expert and time for discussion.
Membership has to be ratified by our management committee. Fees
are calculated according to the size of membership of the affiliated
society and annual turnover.
NCW asks that in return
...
- each affiliate sends their Annual
Report and Accounts each year.
- new affiliates have operated
nationally for over two years.
