As IPMS (UK) reaches its 50th Anniversary this year, membership is
higher than it has ever been and the Society is healthier than ever,
with more Branches, more Special Interest Groups and the huge
success of Scale ModelWorld all contributing to the steady growth.
Membership currently stands at almost 2,900 and continues to rise,
making the 3,000 mark a real possibility in 2013.
As recently as 2007, our membership numbers were stable at just
under 1800. To add over a 1000 new members in the past five years, a
50% increase in size, demonstrates that IPMS remains a significant
and and important part of the modelling fraternity.
There are more ways than ever to join including online via our
website (www.ipmsuk.co.uk) , in addition to the existing methods by
post or at the many model shows where IPMS (UK) runs a membership
stand.
