+title: Update Society Pallet to Support Block Number Provider
+
+doc:
+  - audience: Runtime Dev
+    description: |
+      This PR makes the society pallet uses the relay chain as a block provider for a parachain on a regular schedule.
+      To migrate existing society implementations, simply add `type BlockNumberProvider = System` to have the same behavior as before.
