Membership of the branch is open to anyone interested in the wire-strung harp, whether as players or otherwise. The Wire Branch is part of the parent body, The Clarsach Society (Comunn na Clarsaich) so Wire Branch membership automatically makes you a member of the Clarsach Society. The constitution of the Society can be seen here.
