If you are unable to pay for membership by PayPal please contact the Membership Secretary Mat Joyce – details can be found under Committee Contacts.

Staffs & Shrops LRC offer two types of membership, a full member entitled to enter and sit in all events, and a family member which is free of charge to partners and children living at the same address as a full member only, but there are restrictions on what they can do so please read the notes below.

Full Membership – £26 per year for a new member, and £23 for a renewal

A full membership allows you to enter all event types held by S&S, any other ALRC or Motorsport UK registered club. You will receive the club magazine ‘Talegate’ through the post*, and you will have full voting rights at the club’s Annual General Meeting usually held in January or February. They are also entitled to a copy of the ALRC Handbook (Green Book) available by contacting the Club Secretary.

* Only one copy of Talegate is posted to each address no matter how many members live there.

Please note that a membership is deemed to have expired if not renewed within one month of the renewal date. These members will then be classed as new members and therefore have to pay the higher price.

Everyine that intends to enter or sit in as a passenger in any event held by S&S must also hold a Motorsport UK RS Clubman Licence – these are available by CLICKING HERE and are free of charge. Other club events may need a higher grade licence, so please check with them before entering.

Family Membership – Free of Charge

A family membership is for spouses, partners, or children who do not need a full membership card (ie. to drive a TYRO, or sit in RTV’s and CCV’s) that live at the same address as the full member. These members receive a Family Membership Card, but have no voting rights at the AGM.

Staffs & Shrops Off Road Club Membership

Please note that all full members are automatically members of Staffs & Shrops ORC (allowing them to drive non ALRC vehicles at open events held by ALRC clubs) free of charge.
