What membership means

Membership means you can participate in the governance of Epsom RDA. You must be a member to vote in meetings, propose, oppose or speak on motions being considered, nominate trustees or other officers.

Epsom RDA’s trustees encourage as many people as possible to become members. This will help our community to flourish by representing the widest range of interests of those involved.

Who can become a member?

Anyone over 18 and within the categories below can join:

• Riders
• Volunteers
• Parents/carers of riders
• Representatives of organisations who ride with us

Trustees are members by definition, and we encourage all session leaders to be members. If a trustee is also a session leader, a deputy from the session should also be a member. 

How much does it cost?

There is no membership fee or any other payment to become a member.

Does membership involve any commitment?

Members must act responsibly and in the charity’s best interests. Members should plan to attend the Annual General Meeting; we need at least 10% of members to be present to be quorate. Membership does not impose any other responsibility or liability on you.

How to join

To apply to be a member please complete the online form. Every 12 months we will contact you by email to confirm you wish to continue as a member. If you do not provide written confirmation at that time your membership will end.
