National Allotment Society membership
IAS members have the option to join the National Allotment Society (NAS) through our affiliation.
NAS is the national organisation representing allotment holders across the UK. It provides additional benefits, services, and support beyond IAS membership.
NAS membership is administered separately from IAS and is processed following payment; the membership operates on its own membership cycle and is based on the anniversary of joining, not the IAS membership year.
Cost and eligibility
IAS members can join NAS for £3.50 per year as affiliated members.
For comparison, individual NAS membership outside an affiliated society costs £25 per year.
NAS membership is available only to current IAS members when joining through the Society.
Membership benefits
NAS membership provides additional benefits, including:
- Discounted seeds through the Kings Seeds scheme
- Access to the ‘Allotment Gardener’ magazine (digital and printed)
- Expert horticultural advice and support
- Initial legal advice and access to discounted legal services
- Retail discounts on a range of gardening products
- National representation for allotment holders
