Organisation membership

If your charity works to improve the quality of life for people suffering ill-health, disability or social disadvantage, then membership of Attend could benefit the work that you do.

Group membership rate 2026 - 2027  - £415.00 

Over the last 75 years, we have added many different services to the changing needs of our members, but at our core remains our offer to be of service at the moments you need help.

Sometimes this comes in practical support, such as ensuring insurance at competitive rates, which continues to be important. We also offer practical tools suchs as risk assessment templates, health and safety factsheets, sample policies and fundraising advice.

Since Covid more than ever our support has increasingly been about providing a listening ear, and a bespoke helping hand to any group who faces a challenge.

In the twelve months from 1st April 2024, head office staff (and there aren't many of us) have made 152 separate face to face visits to member groups. Time to listen, explore possible insights and come up with creative ways forward are the most reuglar demands.

This is our Attend promise to all member groups - when you come up against something, you do not need to deal with it alone. We are one phone call, one email away and will support you, on your terms, for as long as it takes. Member groups have increasingly specific issues they want to discuss. Common themes include: 

  • Constitution, and governance issues
  • Memorandum of Understanding with host organisations
  • Support in revitalising the group
  • Risk and risk registers
  • Policies and procedures
  • Issues with personalitites
  • Support on closure
