Do you have family days out, go to the Theatre or Live events?

Then why not reduce your costs by 25% using our Subsidy Scheme.

After the recent NEZRA Annual General Meeting and due to the present Cost of Living Crisis, it was decided to relaunch our Subsidy Scheme.

The original scheme has been enhanced and now includes subsidies being given towards attending either “live performances” (held at recognised venues) or “attractions and events”.

There obviously has to be some guidelines involved within the scheme which are: -

The current subsidy is 25%.
Any subsidy will only be approved for up to four persons for any single event.
Members will be restricted to a total of four applications in any twelve-month period
Some venues, attractions and events may be excluded from the scheme, (for instance Public Houses, Cinemas and large outdoor Festivals).
The subsidy given will apply only to actual costs, i.e., booking fees, travel and other extras will not be acceptable.
Applications will only be accepted if made on the official form (available on our website or from the NEZRA Office) if submitted within 28 days following attendance
Applications will only be accepted if accompanied by the original receipt in the member’s name.
Applications can be made by either post or email (photo/scans of receipt will be acceptable).
Details of where to send the completed application are included on the form.
Ten working days should be allowed for the claim to be processed and returned.
The actual subsidy will be established by the Management Committee which could be amended without prior notice.
The final decision on whether to allow a claim, or not, will be at the discretion of NEZRA.
Applicants will be contacted regarding payment of the Subsidy, which can be made by either Cheque or Bank Transfer.
The scheme cannot be combined with any other NEZRA offer.
The scheme is open to Members Only

NEZRA Office

Welcome to The NEZRA Web site (please book mark this page straight away).

NEZRA is a 'membership' based organisation, our membership base covers a greater number of people within, as well as outside BT, thereby increasing the possibility of increased membership and funding.

It is possible for all ex-BT people to become members, which includes pensioners and people in businesses that were formerly part of BT.

A Standing Order facility is in place enabling payment of NEZRA subscriptions without having to rely on the 'deductions from pay' method. (see under the Membership banner for an application form).

Membership of NEZRA not only offers the chance to participate in events, such as Family Fun Days, trips and sporting challenges, but also great opportunities to win prizes in our lottery (NEZRAlot), currently around £10,000 each year. NEZRA members are automatically entered into NEZRALOT draws.

It should not be forgotten that it is volunteers who run NEZRA and they do an excellent job bringing events within reach of it's members.

I look forward to a bright future with NEZRA - it's all about taking part and having fun.
