Applying for membership
Any business or individual sole trader is eligible to join the chamber provided they are in business and are either located in or have a business interest in Dorset.
Chamber membership is based on company membership and not on individual membership, when individuals leave an organisation they do not take the membership with them.
Once a company or organisation joins then access to Chamber services is available to all the employees of that company/organisation.
Joining can be as simple as completing an application form and is subject to approval.
Registration fees are only payable on joining and not on membership renewals.
Membership runs for twelve months from April 1st to March 31st. Subscription rates are calculated on a monthly pro rata basis. The Chamber is able to settle accounts payable to it by cheque, BACS, credit card or direct debit.
