New Membership Fee Structure
The new BDA membership fees are now in effect and will run from 1st Jan to 31st Dec every year.
If you joined the BDA for free towards the end of last year, you should have received a membership form asking you to continue your membership. If you joined the BDA before the free membership announcement, your paid for membership will need to expire before you can re-join under the new fees structure.
