Benevolent Society

AKA BenSoc

The Benevolent Society of the BIPP (or BenSoc – to give its familiar name) is run by a dedicated team of volunteers and assists people in need due to illness by means of single grants or loans in case of emergency or long-term hardship. BenSoc also provides help, gives encouragement and friendship.

All BIPP Members are automatically considered to receive its benefits. However BenSoc heavily relies on financial support from Members, and continuing generosity is needed to support an ever growing need. Money is raised by annual donations, fundraising at regional events, and through bankers’ orders and legacies.

BenSoc has its own website at www.bensoc.org.

They currently hold two “in-person” committee meetings a year. If you would like to volunteer to help with the running of BenSoc, please contact Michael Bird ABIPP at chairman@bensoc.org.

Please follow the BenSoc Facebook page to keep up to date with activities.

The 200 Club 

BenSoc runs the 200 Club where, for an annual £20 donation, Members can win cash prizes. Every month there is a cash prize of £50. To join you can do so by cheque, or preferably by standing order (£20) using the form from http://bensoc.org/. 

For more information, please contact Chris Titmus at treasurer@bensoc.org.
