Membership
Anyone can become a member of the Legion. All you need is to contact the Club and ask for a membership form, then get two members to propose and second you. Your request to become a member will be published to other club members for a period of three weeks and then once accepted, pay your subscription and use the club facilities.
With your membership you will get a key fob – don’t lose it as this will get you access into the club through the security door.
Memberships are available and application forms can be either collected at the club bar, by contacting us via the contact form, or download from the link on this page. They are renewed annually from 1st November and costs are as follows:
| Membership | Cost |
|---|---|
| Ordinary ex. service, Associate or Family | £25 per year |
| Ordinary snr. citizen, associate snr. citizen, family snr. citizen or widow | £19 per year |
Application
There are 2 forms depending on the category of membership being applied for, ie:
- Ordinary – mainly ex-Service personnel who have served for a period of more than six months (although other categories are included, see below) and;
- Associate – those who support the objectives of Legion Scotland but do not qualify for ordinary membership, also spouses, partners and dependants of ordinary members.
There is no difference in practice to either membership. Your entitlements and voting rights are the same. Click on the links to view and download the relevant membership application form. These forms are in Adobe Acrobat format. If you require the free Acrobat Reader, please download it here.
