Your Member Experience, Refreshed and Elevated

Over the past two years, we've been working hard to make joining the LD4D Network a clearer, more welcoming experience. We want every member - new and existing - to immediately understand the value of being part of our community and how to make the most of their membership. Here's what we've improved:

A clearer path from interest to engagement

The new "Who we are - the Network" webpage, the "Become a Member" webpage and the "Explore ways to engage" webpage better explain who we are, why membership matters and how one can get involved. We also refreshed our registration page to make signing up simpler and more informative. Once someone joins, they now receive enhanced welcome emails that guide them through their first steps as a member.

Introducing the Welcome Toolkit

Most importantly, we've designed a comprehensive Welcome Kit that brings together all the essential information about your membership in one place. It covers everything from what’s in it for you, to how to connect with other members, to ways you can contribute to our shared mission of driving better livestock decision-making through improved data and analysis.

Already a member? This is for you too!

If you joined before we developed these resources, we don't want you to miss out. We're sharing the Welcome Toolkit with all current members, regardless of when you registered.

We believe these improvements will help everyone—new and established members alike—feel more connected to the LD4D community and better equipped to engage with the network.

If you have any questions about your membership, please contact LD4D@ed.ac.uk .
