to the direct debit being applied for in mid-January and mid-July each year. Please note: For those who pay their subscription annually, payment is required within 30 days of the invoice date. Why not look to pay for your BIFA membership via direct debit? If you don’t already use this payment method, it is worth considering, as it allows you to spread your subscription over two equal payments each year, which may help cashflow (50% in January and 50% in July). Should this be of interest to you, please contact Sarah Milton at s.milton@bifa.org who will be able to facilitate this payment method for you. Please note: the option to pay your 2026 subscription fee via direct debit will need to be arranged directly with Sarah Milton prior to the January renewal (no later than 15 December 2025). Should you have any questions, or require any database updates, please contact Sarah Milton – BIFA Membership, s.milton@bifa.org Don’t forget... it is important that you always let us know of any changes to key contacts, email addresses and location addresses, etc. Thank you for your subscription, and we look forward to supporting you into 2026.
