OUR CLUBS

We have two membership options. If you live near a club, you can join them directly as a club member. If you do not live near a club, you can become an individual member and benefit from online networking, events, and development opportunities.

We have clubs throughout Aotearoa - Kaitaia, Doubtless Bay, Franklin, Huntly & Districts, Gisborne, Hawera, Central Hawkes Bay and Upper Hutt - more info below.

BPW CONNECT
INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS

Many members do not live close to one of our clubs, and therefore have the option of Individual Membership. As a group, Individual Members are essentially a club. They can create projects, be part of national taskforces, have international roles, and they have voting rights at our AGM.

 

Individual Members come from all over New Zealand and meet via online meetings and events. Their monthly meeting via video conference is on the first Wednesday of each month, in the evening.

 

Email vpmembership@bpwnz.org.nz for more information about Individual Membership.
