Our new website and membership system is live. Events, payments and your membership now sit together in one place. It’s easier to find what you need, and to get real value from belonging to the UK Chapter of ICF.


The site replaces several separate systems with one connected experience. For you, that means less hassle and clearer access to resources. For us, it means lower costs and better data handling, so we can reinvest more in members.


It’s built around our membership proposition, Membership That Pays Its Way, and its five benefits.
Here’s where to find each one.

Grow Your Business

Every UK Chapter member can create a profile on our searchable Coach Finder. It lists coaches, mentors and supervisors, and your profile can be found through Google.

Choose the coaching themes that describe your practice, so people searching for a coach can find you. It’s a clear way to attract clients and make your membership pay for itself. Please check your profile is up to date.

Professional & Personal Development

Our Events & Webinars area brings together professional development series, credentialing webinars, team coaching and supervision. Local Group and Special Interest Group events are there too, and you can book and pay in one place.

UK Chapter membership includes one full professional development series free. More than 100 CCE units are available each year, so you can keep learning and keep your credential on track.

Networks & Community

We have 25+ Local Groups and Special Interest Groups, and you can connect with 2,500+ coaches across the UK. Whether you’re new to coaching or years into your practice, there’s a place for you.

As a volunteer-led community, we’re grateful for the time members give. The Volunteer with Us page shows current opportunities, and our Member Stories show what belonging looks like. It’s a practical way to build your network while giving something back.

Credentialing Support

Credentialing now has one clear page, with practical guidance on credentialing, ethics and standards. ICF Global sets the credentials and the professional framework. The UK Chapter helps you apply them, with UK events, free CCE opportunities and support to move forward with confidence. We’ve designed it to answer the questions members ask most.

Representation & Voice

The Chapter is run by and for UK coaches. You can meet the team, see where volunteers are needed, and find out how we work with employers and partners on our For Organisations page.

Strong partnerships raise awareness of professional coaching. Any income they generate supports the Chapter and is reinvested in you.

Find Your Membership Route

The Membership page makes your options clear. Practising coaches join ICF Global first, then add UK Chapter membership, from £50 a year. Every other individual can join as a Friend of UK ICF. Not yet a member? Use Find Your Membership Route to see which option fits you, or Compare Membership Benefits to see what each includes.

What to Do Now

We Are Still Improving

This is the first phase. We’ll add more functionality over the coming weeks, and your feedback shapes what comes next. If something doesn’t work as you expect, contact admin@coachingfederation.org.uk and we’ll help.

We hope you enjoy exploring. Welcome to the new home of the UK coaching community
