SOA Personal Data Update
The SOA is updating its database in preparation for the next issue of the Register of Members in early 2026. SOA members were recently sent a membership details form attached to an email distributed via local Hon Secs. This email also contained the first issue of our newsletter, The Shrimper Brief.
The membership details form needs to be completed AS SOON AS POSSIBLE and returned to Maggi, our membership Secretary, whether or not your details have changed. Options for how to do this are shown on the form and in The Shrimper Brief.
If you have already replied, then many thanks,
If you have the form but have not yet replied, then please can you do so without delay, ideally before October 31st.
If you don’t have the form or The Shrimper Brief, then please contact your Hon Sec who will provide another copy.
It’s important that our register shows accurate information. YOUR INPUT IS VITAL.
If you have any queries please contact Maggi - membership@shrimperowners.org
