Membership Of WCC

The primary purpose of WCC is to provide facilities for, and to promote participation in, the Sport of Cruising the inland waterways. To achieve this, moorings and mooring amenities are available to members, but WCC is a cruising club, not just a mooring club. To promote participation in the sport, a lively programme of cruising and social events are held throughout the year. Active participation is the best way to get the most from your membership. By committing to membership of the Club, you are also committing to active participation in the Club’s programme of cruising and social events.

The membership of the Club represents a wide cross-section of the community drawn from many areas in the North West. WCC is a ‘self help’ Club and all its current facilities have been gradually built up over time and been made possible by the tireless commitment, efforts and labour of the Club’s own members. There are no paid officials or employees, it is up to each member to ‘do their bit’ to support the Club. No one person can do everything, but some involvement is expected from all members to support the Club’s future development and sustainability. Regular work party activities take place in which members are expected to participate.

The Membership Officer is responsible for procedures associated with membership of the Club on behalf of the Board of Directors. If after reading the enclosed information, you have any further queries regarding membership at WCC, the Membership Officer will be happy to advise.
