Welcome to several music lovers who have recently become members of Strings Attached and thank you to everyone who has renewed their membership for this season. If you haven’t already done so you can still renew for the year to 31 July 2024. The annual fee remains at £10 and is free for students.
The online membership form can be found at https://www.stringsattachedmusic.org.uk/friends/ and is easily completed and submitted online. Alternatively, you can download a pdf of the membership form using the same link to the Friends page. Complete the pdf form and either post to the address on the form or attach it to an email to c.e.moon@btinternet.com.
