Membership Update

We’re starting to receive a significant quantity of membership renewals back which is great news but because the process of recording the payments and confirming the details is all manual it can slow us down, especially at this time of year. So I hope everyone can be patient and allow about three weeks for confirmation to be sent. This is also the first time we’ve done a mass-renewal so there are bound to be a few snags in our processes but dealing with these will make us a more efficient organisation in the future (we hope!).

We currently use an Access database and Excel spreadsheets to store and manage all the data/payments. It’s a cheap and effective system but can be a bit laborious to use. If anyone knows of a better way or would like to help out with streamlining the process please feel free to get in touch.
