The Benevolent Society of the BIPP
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 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, but we also consider other members of the photographic profession in need of support.
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 standing orders and legacies.
