MEMBERSHIP

Becoming a Member of KDDA UK



"Membership to the Kono District Development Association, United Kingdom (KDDA UK) is open to all persons, above the age of 16, who are interested in furthering the interests of the association."
- KDDA Constitution, 2015.

To apply please register here


Categories of membership applies to all membership of the Charity as stated in the bereavement policy and the 2015 KDDA UK constitution, unless stated to the contrary.

KDDA UK has three distinct and defined types of membership and thus different expectations in terms or rewards and support, namely:


1

Active Member: This is a person in “good standing”, who is registered (every 2 years) and is up to date with his/her monthly subscriptions and 2-year membership fee (which is also payable on renewal). As per the 2015 KDDA UK constitution membership must be renewed every 2 years with a renewal fee of £10 per person for members. This means that the active member has actively participated in majority of the organisation’s functions/activities and they have paid up their monthly subscriptions up to the time of their demise. The Active member’s family will receive a cash lump sum (as defined by the KDDA UK bereavement policy) and benefit from KDDA UK extensively publicizing the funeral to its members via all media and will encourage members to support and contribute financially directly to the bereaved Active member’s family.

2

Dormant Member: This is a registered member but has ceased to pay their monthly membership subscriptions more than 6 months to the point of their demise. They usually attend meetings or other functions. The Dormant member will benefit from a good gesture (not obligatory) from KDDA UK supporting to publicize the funeral arrangements to its members and will encourage members to contribute and support the bereaved family.

3

Associate Member: This person is not registered but claim membership because he/she comes from Kono District or they are descendant of Kono District or have some connections from Kono District. Such person usually participates in functions such as annual outings and dance. The Associate member will benefit from a good gesture (not obligatory) from KDDA UK to publicize the funeral arrangements to its members.
