It is with much sadness that we have to report the death of Terry Atkinson.
Terry was a very well respected member of the Auricula community. A past President of our Society, he was a fine breeder of Auriculas, Denim being one of many.
Terry always took time to chat and was always willing to pass on his vast knowledge to new growers.
His funeral will be held on Monday 17th February 2025 at 1.45pm. Burnley Crematorium, Accrington Road, Burnley BB11 5QD.
Afterwards at Lowerhouse Cricket Club, Brooks Foundation Ground, David Wren Road, Burnley BB12 6LP
We offer our deepest sympathy to his family and friends.
A gentle reminder from our Treasurer
Will all members please note that their membership subs for 2025 will be due on 1 January. We urge all members to make payment by Standing Order, this is, by far, the best method for you and for the Section since subs come directly to our bank account. Around half of members already pay in this way - you will not forget to pay and it saves the Section a great deal of time and expense in chasing unpaid subscriptions.
Remember that you have total control over a Standing Order, it is your instruction to your bank to make a payment on a specified date - only you can alter the amount or stop it.
There is a blank form on this website,
Standing Order - you just need to print it off and fill in your own bank and account details, add your surname and initial [eg Smith J] as the payment reference (so that NAPS can identify the payment as yours) and hand the form in to your bank, not the Treasurer.
You can also set up the Standing Order directly yourself if you use on-line banking.
Also available this year is the ability to pay with your PayPal account.
For all payment methods please see Membership Renewal page.
