Renewal of Membership – OPENING SOON

As always at this time of year, we start the renewal process for the next year and this year we are giving you advance notice.

The FBOA membership year runs from October 1st 2025 – December 31st 2026. To remain a member (including membership of the FBOA Facebook group, the mailing list and other benefits) you will need to have renewed by December 31st 2025.

Please remember for renewals:

• If you own more than one property you need to pay and be a member for all the properties you own
• The cost is only £10 per property for 2026
• Each plot gets one voting right in any votes
• If you have already renewed you will still be receiving this email so dont worry – you don’t have to do anything!

As we move into 2026 and with the issues being reported in 2025, it is vital that as owners we are united and one voice. To remain legally recognised for the essential audit of the service charge we need 50% of the eligible owners every year to be members. When we do open for renewals, please do renew ASAP

Best wishes

Anthony
FBOA Secretary
