As well as being a charity, we are a membership organisation. The
support of our members, financial and physical, is crucial to our work
in furthering international understanding and helping people become
more effective communicators.
By joining, you can become involved in our international programmes,
including the next ESU World Members’ Conference in Edinburgh
in 2008, as well as a wide range of membership activities.
Above all, though, you will know that you are enabling us to continue
and expand our work in Scotland and internationally. You will be making
a real difference to the life chances of many, many people here and
abroad; and will help further our mission of international
understanding and friendship.
