Concessionary rates
We understand that circumstances can vary, so we offer concessionary membership rates to make CIH membership more accessible.
Concessionary membership costs £80 per year for UK-based members. These rates do not affect your membership grade — they simply reduce your annual subscription fee.
You can select a concessionary rate when you apply for membership online. Your application will be reviewed by our team, and we’ll contact you if we need any supporting evidence.
Who can apply
You may be eligible for a concessionary rate if you fall into one of the following categories:
- Under 30s – housing professionals aged under 30 (proof of age required during application).
- HR and learning professionals – find out more.
- Tenants – involved tenants who are not in paid employment – find out more.
- Retired members or those on a career break.
- Learners – UK-based learners studying a housing qualification with our Housing Academy or an approved study centre may be eligible.
- Level 2, 3 or 4 qualification = one year’s membership
- Level 5 qualification = two years’ membership
- Each learner can access the learner concessionary rate once only.
If you’re unsure which concessionary rate applies to you, or need help with your application, please contact our membership team at customer@cih.org or call 024 7685 1700 — we’ll be happy to help.
