About your subscription
As an RCPCH member, you are a valued part of our community of 25,000 child health professionals. Your support is greatly appreciated.
As a membership organisation, we are committed to providing a high-quality service. To maintain and improve what we offer, we review our membership fees each year. This helps the College continue to deliver the best possible experience for our members.
Your subscription rate depends on your membership type and, for some categories, where you live.
When you first apply for membership or change your membership type, you will pay the subscription fee for the remainder of the current calendar year.
You can renew your membership each year. Our membership year begins in January, and we send a renewal notice in December.

If you have access to a UK bank account, we encourage you to pay by Direct Debit - annually or monthly.

- If you are using Internet Explorer version 8 or below, you will be unable to use our online payment system. Please use a modern web browser, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox or Safari.
- If your card payment is declined, please contact your card issuer to find out why. This may be due to a number of reasons, including where cards issued outside the UK are for domestic use only.
Bank transfer
