Organisation Associate Members

SCoD has a membership of organisations from the Public, Private and Third/Voluntary sectors. We welcome new members to help us campaign for a better quality of life for deaf people of all ages in Scotland.

Organisational membership of SCoD offers many benefits including the opportunity to influence and shape future government policy.

What can SCoD influence?

As a national co-ordinating body, we lobby the government at different levels on behalf of our members. This benefits you by enabling you to:

• Contribute to or comment on future government policy or legislation affecting deaf people

• Contribute to the Cross Party Group on Deafness and other relevant Cross Party Groups

• Participate in advisory groups, developmental networks and strategic planning of information and services across Scotland.

Associate Member Benefits:

• Network with like-minded individuals working in the field of deafness

• Influence and shape government policy

• Receive regular members’ mailings including the bi monthly Bulletin, Newsletters, Reports and Briefings

• Invitations to participate in various forums

• Access to training opportunities, including discounts

• Discounts for SCoD Conferences and Events

The main differences between Full and Organisation Associate membership is that Organisation Associates cannot nominate anyone to the SCoD Board, nor can they vote at National Council meetings or Annual General Meetings.

Associate Membership Fee:

£20 per annum
