Membership

Good Evening Shedders,

There will be a few changes coming to the Shed starting Friday April 1st.

As you know the cost of everything is increasing and the Shed has relied mainly on funding.  However, our main funders now expect us to raise our own money as we are going into our third year of the Clydach Shed.  We have to become self supporting.

Another factor is that we also have to think about the ever increasing numbers at the Shed and how to control that, after all there is only a certain amount of room. Also, we have the added problem of some people using the Shed as a casual meeting place and this is only going to get worse in the warmer weather.

With all of this in mind the Shed is going to do two things:-
1. There is going to be a yearly membership charge of £5.00 and you will be given a membership card when you join.
2. The amount you pay is going to increase from £1.50 to £2.00 and you can have as much tea, coffee, cake and biscuits as you want.

Any non members will have to pay £2.00 for every tea or coffee and we have the right to refuse them entry if we are too full.  

I hope you will all understand our situation and support the changes.  I am more than happy to chat about it with you tomorrow.

Thank you for your understanding.

Don't forget it is Bikeability tomorrow after the Shed for those who came last week.  If the weather is too bad we will postpone it but dress warmly anyway as it is supposed to be cold, I know it was freezing today.

I hope I will see you at the Shed tomorrow.
Belinda
