Hi Justine,
Yes there is a reduced fee. Our fees breaks down to be $6/month so if you are looking to join mid year you’d be looking to pay around $30. When you complete your membership form, one of our Committee will contact you to let you know the exact amount as at the date you joined.
Hope that helps!
Erin
