Beta Testing

We're getting ready to launch our new platform, can you help?

Beta Testing

Join the Beta Test for Our Collaboration Platform!

We are excited to invite you to participate in the beta-testing of our new collaboration platform, designed to bring together cross-sector stakeholders and partners to share place-based challenges and solutions. As a selected participant, you’ll have early access to explore the platform, contribute insights, and help shape its development.

What is Beta Testing?

Beta testing allows a select group of users to try out the platform before the official launch. Your feedback will be invaluable in identifying improvements, ensuring the platform meets the needs of our community, and enhancing the overall user experience.

How does this platform work?

Our aim is to bring people together to create innovative solutions to place-based problems. The site is therefore centered around the 'challenges' posed by our community. Challenges can be posted by anyone registered on the site, as long as they align to our mission of creating happy, healthy, prosperous and sustainable places.

To get started, register and post a challenge of your own.

Don't forget to complete your profile to maximise your visibility and get the most out of the site!

Bringing a challenge is not the only way to get involved. Our platform thrives on diverse perspectives and collaborative problem-solving. Even if you’re not bringing a challenge, your contributions are essential to creating happy, healthy, prosperous, and sustainable places. Our community needs solution contributors, people to bring their expertise, insights and innovative ideas.

More information on how to use to the platform can be found here.
