The Society has nearly 300 members worldwide and, while a substantial number are general collectors, there is a keen specialist interest in most areas. The Society welcomes specialist and general members.
The current benefits of membership include:
-
The Kiwi is the official Journal of the Society and is circulated to all members six times a year. It contains articles of both a general and specialised nature together with other useful information on the stamps and postal history of New Zealand. It also provides a valuable forum for debate and correspondence between members.
-
Meetings are held every two months in London. In addition a Regional Group meets four times a year in the North West of England (Orrell, Lancashire), a Midland Group meets in Birmingham twice a year and a Western Group and a Scottish Group meet in different venues. Information about all meetings of the Society is carried in The Kiwi.
-
All UK members are entitled to contribute to, and make purchases from, the thriving packet circuit. Further details are available from the packet secretary on joining the Society.
-
The Society holds annual competitions, with a range of category options, in London during March and in Orrell during September.
-
An auction is held after the Annual General Meeting in November each year. All members may contribute material and can bid on items in person or by post.
