Commercial Information & Rates

AÀA Membership

AÀA is primarily funded by Bòrd na Gàidhlig for a large portion of its core capacity, and although this does not mean AÀA’s services are free of charge, it does allow the us to provide our services at a greatly reduced rate.

Buying into the AÀA membership scheme is an option open to any organisation/project wishing to use our services. Review of membership level should take place and be agreed one to two months before your membership is due for renewal.

Detailed below are the benefits of each level of membership.

Level 1: Tom – £2,000 per annum

Tom members would receive the first 75 place-names (9 more than the commercial rate) researched and proofed free of charge. The commercial rate will apply thereafter.

Level 2: Meall – £3,000 per annum

Meall members would receive the first 114 place-names (14 more than the commercial rate) researched and proofed free of charge. The commercial rate will apply thereafter.

Level 3: Càrn – £4,000 per annum

Càrn members would receive the first 152 place-names (19 more than the commercial rate) researched and proofed free of charge. The commercial rate will apply thereafter.

Level 4: Beinn – £5,000 per annum

Beinn members would receive the first 191 place-names (24 more than the commercial rate) researched and proofed free of charge. The commercial rate will apply thereafter.

* Please note: Those not wishing to apply for membership would pay our standard commercial rate.
