Updating your society's contact details on the register - Large and normal banners

When details about your society change (such as your addresses, or the names and details of your elected officers) you'll need to let us know so the register can be updated.

Your addresses

You’re legally required to tell us when your registered office address changes. We also need a current address for communication. While not mandatory, this allows us to contact you easily when we need to.

Your elected officers

Most societies’ rules require that officers be elected at an annual general meeting. If your officers change, it’s a good idea to notify us; however, you’re not obliged to do so by law.
