Membership Subscriptions
BCST aims to be inclusive to all, and it is our policy to keep membership subcriptions easily affordable.
Email membership - FREE
Postal membership – renewable annually - £3.00 (administration levy per address)
As a wholly voluntary not for profit organisation, we rely heavily on fans' donations to allow us to continue to do the work we do, offer free memberships, and support the Youth Development programme. The Trust board would therefore be very grateful if you would consider making an annual donation by continuous Standing Order by completing the Standing Order Mandate Form included as part of the application form. This would attract 'Patron' status which will be recognised by including such members names in a list of Patrons on our website.
How to join
By printing off and completing a membership form. You can either forward this to the address shown on the form, or hand it to a BCST rep - you can find us in the Surridge Upfront Store on matchdays from 2.15 to 2.45 (7.00 - 7.30 evening kick off's).
It would save us and you some time and expense if you could also complete and forward a standing order mandate.
