Thanks, I found some HMRC internal guidance that said it's fine if it's relevant (the example they gave was a teacher having two different memberships that were relevant to 1. subject and 2. teaching - but neither sounded exactly "required") so I have claimed it and given details of what it is in the info box. Let's see.

Yes. But you must pay it yourself and also have to have it to do your job. So membership of the British Medical Association is deductible if you are a doctor, but not as a, for example, Chimney Sweep.
