You do not have to have a PayPal account to do this, just enter your payment details at the PayPal site and they will undertake the transaction simply and quickly.
Please complete all fields, including your RCVS number which we will use this as part of the verification process. The secretary will review your application within 7 days (although usually less) and if suitable, send you an email with your login details so please check your junk mail as well in-case the e-mail is detected by your spam filters.
Should you not be eligible for membership for some reason, the treasurer will refund your Paypal payment.
