Our Membership Programme
Respect is an organisation built around members with a common mission to end domestic abuse. Our members learn from each other, provide mutual support, and unite their voices with ours to influence government policy and create systemic change.
With our membership programme, we aim to:
- Provide comprehensive, responsive, and flexible support to our members
- Strengthen our collective voice and influence
- Enhance the status of Respect-accredited members
Some of the expected outcomes of our membership programme:
- Members will have better access to resources, expanding their knowledge and skills, and improving their practice
- Meeting the needs of our members
- Having a perpetrator work sector with a stronger, collective voice

Membership Categories and Eligibility
Categories
There are two membership categories, both for organisations: Associate Member and Accredited Member.
- Associate Members are organisations that provide domestic abuse services which have not been accredited by Respect. It is also available to organisations that have a strong interest in ending domestic abuse.
- Accredited Members are organisations that provide domestic abuse services, some of which have been accredited by Respect.
Both Associate and Accredited Members can 'onboard' their employees to the organisational membership so that they have their own login and access the member features.

To become a member, you must:
1. Be a minimum age of 16 at the time of application.
2. Agree to work in line with Respect’s Principles

Membership fees 2025
Membership fees are on a sliding scale, taking into account 3 factors:
- The income of the organisation
- The charity status of an organisation (registered charities are charged lower fees)
- The accreditation status of an organisation (Accredited Members are charged higher fees than Associate Members because they access more benefits)
