We’ve been listening to your feedback and we’re excited to announce that the Online Network will be moving to a new platform in early 2025! This has been designed to better serve your needs. This will mean you will only need one login, one password for the Online Network and all our resources. We are committed to improving your experience, and we can’t wait to share these new features with you in the New Year. Keep an eye out for regular updates in early 2025.

Thank you for taking part in our digital research As some of you may know, we need to move the Online Network to a new platform, as part of a wider project to improve our online resources. We ran a survey and conducted interviews with members of the network to gather information such as: What works well and what needs to be improved What features and functions are most important. Thank you to everyone who was able to take part and provide feedback on their experiences with the current platform. Your feedback is helping us make decisions around features and functionality (Survey results attached). The project team is busy working with our technical partners. This is always a lengthy process, so you won’t see any changes for a couple of months. However, the project team will very soon start communicating with our network before the upcoming changes. If you have any questions or future feedback, please let us know via this post or through our Helpline team.
