When it ends
You can cancel at any time, but no part of the fee is refunded. Monthly Direct Debit payers keep paying to the end of the membership year.
Leaving early
Monthly Direct Debit payers need to pay in full or keep paying until the end of the membership year, as per the monthly agreement.
Refunds
Memberships count as charitable donations, so they are non-refundable. This applies to card, cash and Direct Debit payments.

Your rights
If you signed up online or by phone, you can usually cancel within 14 days of the day you signed up, without giving a reason.
Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, regulation 29
If you asked for it to start within those 14 days, you usually pay for what you had up to the day you told them you were cancelling.
Digital content, such as a film or a book you stream or download, is the exception: once it has started with your agreement, and you accepted that you'd lose the right to cancel, you usually lose those 14 days.
If Apple or Google Play bills you for it, you cancel it with them, not with the seller. On Google Play, deleting the app doesn't cancel it.
