Launch of online community platform, VeryConnect

Our members spoke, and we acted. To support their need to connect with each other, particularly during these trying times,1 February marked the launch of our online community platform, VeryConnect.

The platform provides our Members with:

• A forum: This is one of the most powerful areas of our new Membership platform. Here Members can post questions, ideas or thoughts on a wide variety of topics, enabling other PPGs to engage with and respond to them.
• Membership database: The self-service portal allows Members to easily join and renew membership and update their contact details. They can see where other members are based, find members based on their interests, and send them a message.
• Social pages: Members can post news items to promote the activities of their PPG as well as import items from Twitter, share images, and copy and paste from Facebook and YouTube.
• Resources and articles: Members can submit articles for publishing, which if approved will be shared with the entire membership. Members also have exclusive access to our most valuable documents and informative resources. 

Ultimately, VeryConnect provides a unique space for our members to connect, network, access opportunities and learn from each other.

The power of community is huge and our members will have easy access to learn from each other, mining the wisdom of successful PPGs and helping each other out along the way.
