Retired members application form

Post by caraidalba »

Hi.
We have had a number of members retiring recently, and have run out of the form for staying a member as a retired one. I have searched the CWU website (which is s**t), but have been unable to find copies to print off. The best I could find online was one for our Irish members, which is unfortunately not helpful.
I know from experience that this is the site to go to find what I need. Could somebody please assist? Cheers guys.

Retired members:
If you have recently retired and would like to retain your membership with the CWU, you can do so at a discounted rate whilst still making use of the excellent benefits. Simply click on the relevant application form below, save it to your computer or print it out and send it back to us once you've completed it to the address below or email joinunion@cwu.org. If you have any trouble completing the form please give us a call on freephone 0800 731 7434.

- Retired member application form (for members who apply to continue their CWU membership within 26 weeks of retirement. Includes access to the death benefit)

- Retired associate member application form (for members who apply to continue their CWU membership after 26 weeks of retiring. Membership fees are lower but membership does not allow access to the death benefit)

Just click on the blue links. :wave
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Death Benefit

Death grant for members currently stands at £732.00. Next of kin should contact the branch of the deceased in the first instance. Any queries, please contact Linda at lmcnamara@cwu.org.
