Membership
About
All applications are subject to the approval of the committee and all members must satisfactorily complete a Personal Enquiry Form and AA Form.
Due to our Scout Association affiliation, you will have to gain an Enhanced Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) certificate. The fee for this is covered by the Scout Association.
Although we are affiliated to the Scout Association, we do have members who choose to cave only and do not get involved with scouting activity.
Our membership runs from April each year, but you can join at any time.
