The SAA membership year starts on the 1st May and we are reliant on the income from membership fees to pay the water rentals, however, without members continued support, there will be difficult decisions to be made as we may not be able to afford to pay all the water rents.

Membership from 1st May 2020 to 30th April 2021

Membership categories and fees are unchanged from last year, see table below.

Membership forms can be downloaded from the tab on the left or by clicking here.
