AFETT Business :

MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE UPDATE: MEMBERS’ DISCOUNTS

Towards the end of 2007, the Andrea Alkins and Dulcie Furlonge of the Membership Committee approached AFETT members who own their businesses to formalize discounts to AFETT members. The discount listing was available on Take Note.

The Membership committee is in the process of evaluating response to the discount programme. This process would entail getting feedback from the business owners as well as the wider AFETT members who may have taken the opportunity to access the preferential benefits offered by your fellow AFETT colleagues. The committee has decided it is necessary to perform these assessments and determine if such as drive is worthwhile before approaching external businesses. AFETT members, hope you made good use of these initial concessions so that the project can progress to the next stage.

Happy shopping!

If you have any questions re this subject or any other membership issues, please email membership.afett@gmail.com
