Membership is open to both patients and their families in the UK and overseas, as well as to medical professionals (please note that medical professionals will not have use of the member-search facility).
As part of AMEND's aim to make the charity's membership fully inclusive to people of all incomes, as of 10th May 2008, MEMBERSHIP IS NOW FREE. This has been achieved thanks to members' generous donations, fundraising and the support of the Mrs Waterhouse Charitable Trust Fund. In order to join, all you need to do is print, complete, sign and send the appropriate forms. You will then receive a membership card containing your unique membership number.
Donations would be gratefully received, however, and can be made by cheque (payable to "AMEND" and sent to PO Box 89, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN4 0AQ, UK), or by debit/credit card via our website using the Paypal facility.
If you are a UK tax payer, please also complete a Gift Aid Form to enable us to claim back tax from the Government at no cost to yourself.
