We hope that other membership associations of all kinds will affiliate
to the Forum because established groups can gain significant benefits
from network technologies to enhance their communications.
The Forum may help run special events for affiliated associations on
request.
Affiliation costs nothing to the association or its members. The association
commits to promote the Network Users Forum to its members, and if
it is successful in this by attracting 50 or more of its members
to join the Forum - then the Forum will provide bespoke online services
to the associations members (see our email
discussion list for Sheffield Business Club, for example)
Affiliated organisations currently include:
If your membership organisation would be interested in affiliating to
the Forum, please email us at management@nuf.org.uk
Network Users' Forum:
Affiliation Agreement 1999
The Network Users' Forum ("the Forum") works in partnership
with membership or subscription-based associations of businesses, community
and education groups. The Forum's aims in these partnerships are:
- to enable associations to pass on extra benefits to their members
and subscribers where they are interested in using networks
- to use the associations' existing communication channels to maintain
awareness of the Forum's activities and services
- to explore ways in which the associations themselves can communicate
with, and provide services to, their members using networks.
Name of Association:................................. ("The Association")
The Association agrees to affiliate to the Network Users' Forum under
the terms set out below.
Where the Association sends regular mailings to its members, the Association
agrees to include latest information about the Forum in three mailings
during the year.
Where the Association holds meetings for its members, the Association
agrees either to involve the Forum in at least one of these meetings during
the year, or to collaborate with the Forum in running at least one separate
meeting during the year.
In return, the Network Users' Forum agrees, when fifty* or more of the
Associations members have joined the Forum, to provide online services
such as email discussion list support - to the Association free
of charge for at least one year.
The Forum will also provide the Association with names of its members
who have taken out subscriptions to the Forum twice a year.
