Answer as a proposer or seconder

When someone applies to join and names you as their proposer or seconder, the club emails you at the address it holds for you: … has named you as proposer for membership (or seconder). Your answer goes to the committee. You do not need to sign in.

Answer

1. Press Answer now in the email. A page opens: You have been named as proposer, and Do you know …?
2. If you know them, type how long you have known them. Add anything you would like the committee to know, if you wish.
3. Press Yes, I know … and support the application, or No, I can't support this.

The page then says Thank you. For a yes, Your support has gone to the committee.; for a no, We have let the club know.

If you do not know the person, press No. The applicant is not told what you answered; the club follows it up.

Good to know

• Each answer can be given once. To change it, contact the club.
• The link works for 30 days. The office can send a fresh one.
• Once the application has been decided, the page says This application has already been decided. There is nothing more to do.
• If you press Yes without saying how long you have known them, the page asks: Say how long you have known them.
