Annual Memberships and Registration fees are non-refundable. Annual subscriptions run on an ongoing 12-month basis. A non-member applying for a Professional Level and/or one of our Specialist registers is required to pay the full subscription rate for that category. The subscription payment is non-refundable if an application is unsuccessful. Associate member benefits will apply if an application is unsuccessful.

However, if a decision to cancel a new membership and/or registration is made within 30 days of the payment being processed, and the application has not been passed on to our Membership Assessment Panel (MAP), a refund can be provided less a 10% administration charge.

We offer Reduced Subscription Rates for low-income members and retired members. For more information on these rates, please get in touch by emailing us at: membership@ifst.org

Renewing your membership until 31 December 2022 provides you with the opportunity to refer up to two friends, colleagues or contacts as new associate (or above) members. Each new member you refer will benefit from a £20 reduction on their membership fee for 2022-23.

Offer applies to existing members (Associate, Member, Fellow) paying a full subscription fee by card, renewing their membership up until 31 December 2022. The offer is open for a period at the discretion of IFST - until 31 December 2022.
