Join Us

We all have an increasing number of commitments, in terms of time and money – so why join the Chamber of Commerce? Here are just a few of the reasons…

  • The Chamber is a platform to have your voice heard – when we come together and speak with one voice as the Chamber, it’s easier to get people to listen.
  • The Chamber is a platform to try new things – by collaborating with other Chamber members you can refine your ideas and use the resources of the Chamber to help keep Hay special.
  • By attending Chamber meetings, you can meet and network with other business owners in the town – all of whom are your potential customers of the future.
  • You will receive access to a regularly refreshed and updated set of Hay-related stock images taken for us by local, professional photographers to use on your website, marketing material, social media or anywhere you like!
  • You will be eligible for a reduced rate from the Warren Committee if you’d like to rent the Butter Market
  • Plus many new incentives being developed….

Chamber membership is still just £25 a year – the subscription fee hasn’t changed over the past 20 years. We feel this represents excellent value for money when you weigh up the benefits.

As a member you can:

  • Attend all Chamber meetings (held roughly twelve times a year) and have your voice heard. Come along to a couple to see what we’re all about before committing.
  • Join the closed Facebook group Hay Small Business Community to chat informally to other members, share ideas, ask questions and more.
  • Vote for office holders at our AGM held every year.
  • Join our Hay Voucher scheme and accept vouchers at your business.
  • Feature in our press and PR campaigns to bring people to the town.
  • Have your say, be better connected and stay up to date
  • Find out more about and perhaps join one of our spin-off working groups – for example Access to Cash, Independence & Bookstagram Hay Celebrations Committee, Hay Christmas Lights and Hay Small Business Support Network.
  • Stay bang up to date – efficient lines of communication are key in a world with Covid-19 and we are keen to ensure the business community are always included, well represented and prioritised.

Your membership fee also helps to fund/facilitate:

  • The Hay Vouchers scheme
  • The annual Christmas lights display in the town.
  • The Thursday market in the town.
  • PR and promotion for the town.
  • Small Business Support
  • The Parish Hall
  • Hay in Bloom
  • Christmas Window Competition
  • independence Celebrations
