Get in touch

Contact BOVF

We are volunteers spread across a dozen time zones, so replies are not instant — but every message is read.

What are you getting in touch about?

Any of these will reach us at the same address — putting the subject line in helps us route it to the right person.

  • I want to start a branch where I live

    The commitment is smaller than people expect. Most branches began with one person willing to answer emails and organise an occasional meeting.

  • I want to join a policy group

    Policy groups are open to members. You do not need to be an expert — direct experience of a problem is evidence.

    Email us about this →
  • I have a story like the ones on your site

    Our arguments to MPs are much stronger with real accounts behind them. We publish nothing without permission and anonymise by default.

  • The membership fee is a barrier

    No one is turned away. Ask for a waiver and a trustee will reply personally.

  • I am a journalist or researcher

    We are happy to talk about the registration gap, the 52% postal return rate, and our 20-country benchmarking report.

  • I am an MP, adviser or official

    We engage with all parties and take no party funding. We would welcome a conversation.

Prototype note

A live site would put a contact form here, with spam protection and routing to the right trustee. This prototype uses plain mailto links because it deliberately has no email sending capability — see the privacy policy.
