Blue Chip Issue 78 - Jan 2021

Being a member of the FPI doesn’t
just strengthen our collective
bargaining power and heighten our
professional profile, it also comes with
considerable individual benefits.
Don’t forget to renew your membership
now to lock in 2020 prices
In a year of such unremitting financial
pressure, you will be pleased to know that
members who renew their membership
before 31 December will pay 2020 rates
for the 2021 year. From 1 January 2021, a
4% increase will be applied to all membership
categories.
And remember: being a member of the
FPI doesn’t just strengthen our collective
bargaining power and heighten our
professional profile, it also comes with
considerable individual benefits, not
least discounted rates on our excellent
events and CPD offerings and access to
an incredible pool of knowledge, which is
always only a phone call away.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Of course, none of this would have
been possible without the unflinching
support of our wonderful members who
– despite the challenges of a global pandemic
– continued to give of their time,
their energies and their support to our
collective cause.
A big thank you goes out to every single
one of you… You know who you are.
Now all that remains is for me to wish
each and every one of you a restful and
blessed festive season. I hope you manage
to find the time to truly unwind with your
nearest and dearest. I think we’ve all earned
a proper holiday this year!
Take care, and see you in 2021.
