Joining a Lancashire Club
1. Chose a club
Lancashire has 15 active Young Famers Clubs across the county. You can join which ever of these you want, regardless of where in the county you live.
You can find out more about each club; what they can get up to, where and when they meet etc, at the links below.
We recommend you contact the club and go to a couple of meetings first, before deciding which club you will join, you are allowed to go to 3 meeting before you will need to be a member. This will give you a chance to meet some members, get to know the club officers and will make joining a whole lot easier.
2. Sign up online
Your chosen Club Officers manage the process of their clubs membership.
The entire process is online and accessed through the National Federation of Young Farmers (NFYFC), there are a few stages to go through:
