Membership and meeting fees for 2026

WAFTA MEMBERSHIP & MEETING FEES

The WAFTA Committee are mindful of the importance of keeping the member costs as affordable as possible.  As a result, membership and meeting fees have remained unchanged for many years.  However, this position is no longer financially viable due to the increasing costs of running the association.  As such, the WAFTA Membership fees and meeting fees for Perth Metro & Online meetings will be changing from 1 January 2026 to reflect the current inflationary pressures.

Below is a summary of the Membership fee changes which will come into effect from 1 January 2026.
