Basingstoke Town Community FC has called a special meeting for members to vote on a proposal to restructure the club to support its future ambitions. The meeting will take place at The Clubhouse in Winklebury on Sunday 31 May 2026, starting at 4pm.
As a 100% fan-owned, not-for-profit community benefit society, the club requires approval from its members to move forward with the proposed changes. The upcoming vote follows a unanimous decision by members in July 2025 to explore external investment opportunities as the club looks for additional resources to aid its growth and long-term sustainability.
Chairman Jack Miller, a fourth-generation supporter of the club, has been leading efforts to explore these growth opportunities. This includes seeking potential investors and pursuing plans for new stadium facilities. The club, which currently competes at step 3 of the non-league football pyramid, has seen recent success on the pitch, including a win in the Hampshire County Cup in April 2026.
The club has been under fan ownership since 2019, when supporters stepped in to save the organisation after its future was threatened by a proposal to sell the former Camrose ground. Membership in the Community Club, which grants supporters the right to vote on strategic decisions and board appointments, costs £25 per season. According to the club, the upcoming meeting is vital for shaping the path forward for the team.
Further details regarding the meeting can be found in the official notice provided by the club.
