Subscription rates
UCU Subscription rates
UCU Subscription rates run each year from 1 September to 31 August. The subscriptions are made up of a national levy which covers all national and regional activity plus a small local subscription which covers the cost of our Branch Administrator and any other local costs. Changes to the national rate are approved at UCU Congress annually; local increases are approved at a Branch General Meeting.

Switch to Direct Debit payment
For existing members currently paying by checkoff (ie through your salary) please consider moving to direct debit as it's much less time-consuming for us locally and places less reliance on the University. To change simply print and fill out the form here and put it into the internal post to the Branch Administrator, UCU Office, 1d Priory Road. We will then remove your checkoff payment and replace it with a direct debit.
For new members the easiest way to join UCU is through our national Web site.
