Out of this World

Membership:

We currently have over 16000 members and many more who are not members use our shops. By becoming a member of Out of this World you become a part owner of the business, because by making a one off payment of £5 you will receive 5 shares in the Society. It is also possible to purchase further shares.

The £12.50 annual supporters payment helps cover central administration costs including mailing of the Out of this World newsletter, Outlook, three times a year. Payment is £17.50 for your first year and £12.50 for each subsequent year.

Members who pay the annual £12.50 fee, and our investors (those who have purchased over £50 of shares) will receive our newsletter 3 times a year and in addition, a package of benefits including a variety of deals with other ethical organisations, plus The Food Magazine supplement.

Other members can pick up the newsletter in the shops, where they will also find the AGM notification displayed in June each year.

“OOTW is about ethical shopping for people who care about the effects of their purchase on the producer and on the wider environment. I’d love to see more links with similarly-minded retailers in other parts of the country.” Fiona Rutter is a Cambridge member.
