Membership for juniors under 16 runs until their 16th birthday, so no need to reapply each year. When they turn 16, they should reapply within 6 months of their birthday, or they will be classed as a ‘new member’ / ‘lapsed member’ and will need to pay the £25 admin fee.
What is a ‘lapsed member’? it means you have been a member but you did not renew your membership within 6 months of its expiry date (see inside cover of your membership book) so you are classed as a 'new member’ and must pay the £25.00 admin fee again.
Gate Codes are issued when you’ve received your book (you do not need a code for Dunkirk Pond). When you’ve received your book, to get the codes, please text 07976 794880 with your full name and membership book number (so we know who you are).
Gate codes are not automatically issued to junior members (under 18’s). Should you and / or your parent / guardian require vehicle access, please contact us before planning your fishing trip. Issuing codes is strictly at the discretion of TVA.
