The British Australian Pensioner Association (BAPA) was founded in 1985, under its initial title of the Australian British Pensioners Trust Fund, in order to campaign against against the iniquitous, arbitrary and unfair selective indexation of the UK Retirement Pension. During the initial discussions with the Australian government it became obvious that to ensure a greater degree of credence and accountability they would be best served by becoming an Incorporated Association and in consequence their Constitution was promulgated and Incorporation was granted in 1995.

British Pensions in Australia (BPiA) is an association of volunteer expatriate British State pensioners, challenging the UK government's discriminatory, immoral pension legislation, which causes our UK pensions and those in Canada, South Africa and NZ to remain "frozen"; but in the USA, EU, Israel and some 20+ other countries, the UK State pension is regularly increased for inflation.

In its present form The South African Alliance was launched in 1994 with the objective, as stated in our constitution, being:  “To persuade the British Government to pay Social Security Pensions to all pensioners resident outside the United Kingdom at the same rate as those pensioners and widows would receive were they resident in the United Kingdom and certain other countries”
