Memberships for those not wishing to use Stripe or wish to pay a different amount

We have set up our membership with one simple form. It is not possible without paying quite a bit of money to do that and have all payment options available to people. At the moment you can only pay a set donation/membership amount. Over time we should be able to change this so that people can pay more or less as they see fit.

On this page at the top there is a membership form that you can fill in that is not linked to Stripe. It does not deal with payments. There are details below this form on doing a direct bank transfer and also using either PayPal Donate or Stripe ( where you can set the amount) for payment.

If you wish to print off membership forms instead of filling it in online then you can do so from this link.

Your privacy is important to us and we want to communicate with members in a way which has their consent, and which is in line with UK law on data protection. As a result of a change in UK law, we now need your consent in how we hold information about you and how we contact you. By signing this form you are confirming that you are consenting to Stockport ME Group holding and processing your personal data for the preceeding purposes (please tick the boxes for which you grant consent). You can consent to all the purposes; one of the purposes or none of the purposes. Where you do not grant consent we will not be able to use your personal data; (so we wouldn’t be able to send you our newsletter, membership renewal reminders, tell you about events etc); except in certain limited situations, such as where required to do so by law or to protect members of the public from serious harm.

Gift Aid DeclarationI would like the Stockport ME Group to treat all donations and subscriptions that I have made since 6th April 2000 and all donations that I make from the date of this declaration as Gift Aid Donations, until I notify you otherwise and I consent to Stockport ME Group holding my data for this purpose on their paper and electronic systems.I am not eligible or do not want this to be treated as a Gift Aid donation

If you are eligible for Gift Aid and willing to make membership subscriptions and donations we receive from you as gift aid it would add 25% to any monies we receive.

How do you wish to pay for your membership *

• Bank Transfer
• The Donate Form Below
• I would like a free membership

Telling us how you wish to pay helps us to look out for your membership payment or to allocate you a free membership ( and not request payment). Note that anyone who requests a free membership will receive a membership renewal request for the following year. You are still welcome to request a few membership then.

Submit

If you wish to do a direct bank transfer then our details are as follows: Stockport M.E. Group, sort code 01-01-14 account 32699565. It is helpful if you send an email to Shirley our membership secretary (shirley.lynham1603@gmail.com) so she knows what it is for although she will often be able to guess if a £12 payment is sent from an existing member.

If you want to use Paypal or use Stripe with a different payment amount than our standard membership you can either use our “donate” button or you can use the form below:-
