Your Voice Is Powerful – Use It
At the British Overseas Voters Forum (BOVF), we hold a core belief that’s simple but transformative: Where decisions are made that affect many people, many people should be involved in the decision-making. That includes British citizens living overseas — and that includes you!
Excluded & Disenfranchised
Too often, important UK policies are shaped without considering the voices of the half a million Brits living abroad. From frozen pensions and spousal visa issues to voting rights and overseas access to banking, these decisions impact your daily life.
But unless we speak up together, we risk being ignored.
Help Strengthen Our Collective Power
That’s why BOVF exists: to unite those voices, to bring lived experience into the conversation, and to build pressure for practical policy change. But we can’t do it alone. We need more voices, more visibility, more momentum. That’s where you come in.
By helping us grow, you strengthen our collective power. Every Supporter who registers, every Member who joins, and every Forum post that shares a real story adds depth and authenticity to our cause. It’s your insight, your story, your lived experience that makes BOVF credible and compelling.
Together;
We can make sure every British citizen overseas knows these truths:
They’re not alone.
They have rights.
And they can take part in the change.
What Is the Tell Ten Friends Challenge?
It’s simple.
If you support what BOVF is doing – or have personally experienced the issues we campaign to fix – then we’re asking you to tell ten British friends abroad about us.

Encourage them to do just one of the following:
Every person you tell increases our power to influence policy, media coverage, and decision-makers in the UK.
