The Fell Pony Society
Join the FPS!

Members receive two informative Magazines annually, in March and November. In addition other privileges of membership include youngstock registration and eligibility to compete for premiums, prize monies, trophies and awards. Members can also take part in Shows run by FPS (4 in the north and 1 in the south of England), and under FPS rules at affiliated shows around the country (Calendar of Events here).

Annual Membership Subscription Rates

FPS Membership fees - 2026

Society memberships fall due on 1 January annually. If a subscription renewal has not been received by the time we send out the Spring Magazine, a reminder slip is enclosed with it.

Alternatively, members can arrange to pay their subscription by standing order on 1 January each year; or pay by bank transfer. If you pay by either method please can you check you are paying at the correct rate. The membership rates can be checked below, and in the Magazine. Priority will be given to those who have paid correctly.

Full (UK and Overseas) Members must have paid their annual subscription in full on or before 15 February to be entitled to participate in the postal vote for the election of the Council. You will probably not receive your Magazine and reminder by this date, so please arrange to pay early in the year so you do not miss out on the opportunity to vote.

Please note: You must have paid your annual subscription in full, and received and signed your membership card BEFORE the Annual General Meeting to be eligible for any vote at the meeting. Please have your membership card ready to show on arrival at the meeting.

An associate member is unlikely to own a pony and therefore will not wish to take advantage of the pony related privileges of membership.

Family membership may be applied for by married or co-habiting couples or single parents and their children under the age of 18 years, all residing at the same address. The adult members enjoy the rights and privileges of full membership, and the children the rights and privileges of junior membership. Full details are in section 2 of the Articles of Association.

How to Pay Your Subscription or Pay for Merchandise

BANK DETAILS  

The Society's BACS / IBAN / SWIFT code details are here, and on the Fees Page.

If you wish to pay your membership by Standing Order, please arrange a mandate to set the payment up through your bank, because the Society cannot do it on your behalf.

The Society is setting up a facility to take card payments but it does not use PayPal.

Payments from Overseas

Because exchange rates fluctuate, we cannot accurately quote fees in foreign currencies, so Overseas payments should be made in British Pounds sterling (£ GBP), and any charges should be paid in the country of origin.

You may find that Money transfer services such as Wise or Xe.com charge less than Bank transfers. See example screenshot from xe.com or view a list of other companies/apps.

If you use one of these services to make your payment, please make sure that the figure in the "Recipient gets..." box matches the amount in £ GBP that you intend to send to the Fell Pony Society (see the fees list, above).

NB - Our bank makes a charge for the receipt of an electronic transfer from overseas – please add £2 for transactions up to £100, and add £7 for transactions greater than £100. (If you are a UK resident this does not apply.)
