Membership report
Our records were audited in August this year and, together with the new members that have joined around Party Conference, LDEG's membership now stands at 202. Due to the practical difficulties of handling cash and cheques, especially during the COVID period, the Executive decides to discourage new members p[aying by those means. All members are encourage to use the GoCardless (direct debit) platform liked to the LDEG website.
