Become An LHC Member
LHC membership offers local authorities, housing associations and any other public sector organisations a number of valuable benefits - and there is no membership fee!
LHC offer two membership levels, associate and full. The details below explain the difference, but if you wish to discuss membership with us, you can contact your local LHC representative, or alternatively, call LHC on 01895 274800.
Associate Membership
You can join as an associate member. All you need do is to commit to spending a minimum of £200k per annum on at least two LHC framework arrangements.
You could then receive a rebate of up to 4.5% of the value of your spend through the frameworks within the financial year. And its easy to apply.
And once you have been an associate member for three years, you are entitled to apply for full member status with its enhanced benefits.
Please be aware that you can use LHC framework arrangements as a non-member, but you will not share in the extended benefits.
