I very much want to have an active and participatory role in the chapter. However, being a student membership costs in the order of thousands p.a. is completely infeasable. Most students (who seem to be a considerable Wikidemographic) struggle to keep alive, so would also be excluded. Unless there were extreme concessions, this would not work.
The idea being proposed, which I'm not entirely sure about yet, was that the chapter would pay 1000s to the Foundation in return for being a member of the Foundation, not that members of the chapter would ever pay anything like this.
The fees for members should probably be something similar to those for the French and German chapters, which are 35 € and 24 € per year respectively (approx £23 and £16), with discounts for those on low incomes.
