Our membership scheme is changing

Last year we spoke to hundreds of you to find out what you want from membership.

We listened. From 1 July we’re offering new and renewing members the choice between peak and off-peak membership options. We'll also be offering some exciting new perks too, which we're really excited about! 

If you are one of our current members nothing will change until it is time for you to renew and our team are here to help you make the very best out of your membership.

 

Your new membership scheme 

Choose your time, pace and price with peak and off-peak options. 

Peak = visit anytime, all year round. This includes Bristol school holidays and bank holidays. 

Off-peak = visit during term time only, including weekends outside of Bristol school holidays

When you renew, you’ll enjoy

Children aged 0-1, personal assistants and foster carers can visit for free. They don’t need to be included in your membership package, but you will need to book them a ticket. 

If you need membership for more than 5 people or for a child, please speak to our team. 

Concessions save 25% 

If a member of your group has concessionary status, we can offer your whole group a concession discount of 25%. We’ll ask for your concession status when you sign up. 

Concessionary status includes disabled people, students, foster children, childminders, home educators and anyone in receipt of Carer’s Allowance, Universal Credit or Pension Credit.

How to renew 

If you’re paying by direct debit 

In most cases, you don’t need to do anything. Your membership will automatically renew onto our new peak membership option.  

The overall cost will increase slightly (around 15%), but you’ll also be able to enjoy new perks. 

As we’re no longer able to support annual direct debits, we’ll switch you over to monthly direct debit if this applies to you. 

If you’d prefer to switch to an off-peak membership, please get in contact with us within 14 days of your renewal date.

If you paid up front for a year’s membership 

To continue enjoying limitless curiosity you’ll need to sign up again after your membership expires, choosing between peak or off-peak membership.

Standard membership - It’s easiest to do this online. You can choose to pay up front again, or to spread the cost with monthly direct debit. 

Concession membership - Complete our membership form and send it to membership@wethecurious.org

 

Alternatively you can get in touch with our team and we'll help you get set up.  

Superboost your support with Gift Aid

Please opt into Gift Aid when you renew to make your support go 25% further. 

Gift Aid means we can claim 25% of your total membership cost from the government, at no extra cost to you. 

This extra income makes a massive difference to us as a charity – thank you!
