Companies House and the Member Register
How we handle your data now we're a company limited by guarantee.
On 2 January 2020 we converted to a company limited by guarantee. Prior to that we were a friendly society. This change to our legal status means that we must follow a new set of standards. These obligations are set out in the Companies Act which now governs our business.
Any company that is listed with Companies House must maintain a register of its members. At the point we converted (2 January 2020) we were required to provide Companies House with a copy of that register of members. The information we shared with Companies House contained only the names and addresses of our members.
The Companies Act requires us to maintain a record of all our members at a given point in time. This register contains the names and addresses of our members. Anyone, with a legitimate reason, may ask to inspect the Member Register.
