Member Benefits
Donations
We rely entirely on donations from residents, having decided to change from a subscription-based society back in 2011. Donations to FOPA can be made by bank transfer or cash, please email info@fopa.co.uk for details. Donations will go to specific fundraising projects with a small portion allocated towards the running of FOPA (website hosting, printing etc).
Committees & Groups
FOPA is run by, and for, its residents who are all volunteers. There are many smaller groups that members can be involved with, as well as selected to join the committee.
• Fundraising
• Website
• Gardens
• Streetscape
