Join the Society

If you love collecting stamps, you might like to join our society. A philatelic society is a group of people who share your passion for stamps and postal history. By joining a philatelic society, you can meet new friends, learn more about stamps, exchange tips and advice, and participate in events and activities. A philatelic society can also help you expand your knowledge to find rare or valuable stamps. It can also provide an opportunity to sell or trade your duplicates. Joining a philatelic society is a great way to enjoy your hobby and connect with other stamp enthusiasts. Whether you're an experienced collector or just starting out in the hobby come along to one of our events and meet others who share your interest. You'll be very welcome. Alternatively contact the Hon. Secretary, details on the contact page. Membership is open to all stamp collectors and philatelists in Basildon and neighbouring areas.
