Membership Renewal

Please note that subscriptions for 2025 become due on 2nd January. Details of rates and how to pay were given in the November Newsletter or, if in doubt, contact the Membership Secretary (see Contact page).

If you want to contact the Society please use the email addresses on the Contact page. We cannot send emails from the ...@themendipsociety.org.uk addresses and using a personal email address for emailing all members risks being treated as a spammer. Temporary yahoo addresses have been set up for this purpose but please do not reply to these as they are not regularly looked at and one (mendipsocmailing@yahoo.com) can no longer be accessed.

The Mendip Hills sit high above the Somerset countryside in South West England.



The limestone uplands feature dry gorges, caves, sinks and river sources. One of the most famous areas is the Cheddar Gorge, and the Mendip Hills National Landscape is a protected landscape.

The Mendip Society works to conserve and enhance the Mendip Hills and surrounding areas for everyone to enjoy. 

As a registered charity, we organise social activities on the hills for all our members including walks, special interest visits and talks. We also manage some small nature reserves and members are encouraged to be involved with these.
