Renew Online (from 1st April and not before)

Log in to the Members’ Portal.  Payment can be made either via a Pay Pal account or you can select the option to make your payment by credit or debit card. Please also see Gift Aid and Standing Order below.

Renewal Form

You can download the Membership Renewal Form 2025.  Bring the completed form and your membership fee (cash or cheque) to the monthly meeting. You can also pick up a Membership Renewal Form in person at a monthly General Meeting.

Gift Aid

As you may know, because the u3a is a registered charity, we are able to make a claim for Gift Aid from HMRC for any member who is a taxpayer, which equates to 25% of their membership payment.

Because our only source of income is our membership fees, being able to claim this revenue makes a big difference to our finances.

Therefore, if you are a UK taxpayer and you have not already done so, please could we ask that you complete and return the Gift Aid Form to us. (HMRC now advise that this can be sent to us electronically [by email]).

To those members who may have completed a gift aid form in the past but have a change in their circumstances (i.e. They are no longer are registered to pay tax), please complete a new gift aid form.

Standing Order

You may wish to consider completing a Standing Order Mandate for future renewal of membership, although please bear in mind that the form will need to be re-completed and submitted each time there is a change in membership fees. Download the form: Standing Order Mandate Form.
