In case you haven't been contacted by Natasha...

The https://bbcalumni.co.uk/

site is now 'live' and so you are able to explore the site and modify your profile.

Thanks Natasha!

Sorry to show my ignorance but what is this website?

I obviously don't have a password, and who is Natasha?

BBC Alumni...

"Reminisce Reconnect Reunite".

Since 2014, the BBC has run a basic web-site, organising various events and meetings and offers are made available to members of "BBC Alumni"

You need to log in, and register. The site has evolved and been re-launched.

The Alumni in conjunction with BBC Events offered tickets for the TMS v Tailenders cricket at Derby with free tea included. The event was last Friday and in spite of miserable weather was well worth the trip.....it felt good to be going on a "jolly" again, with freebies (glass of pimms, sandwiches, cakes and tea.) Thanks Natasha, and can we have some more freebies in the North again, please?

The Alumni blog is not as active as this one. I sense a reticence, but it's early days yet.

One month on and I have been surfing around the Alumni website--but for the life of me i cannot find anybody else who is a member, wants to connect or is active in blogging etc . There are invites to events( fine! great!) but my sense is there is very little interactive web site take up as yet and wonder if it's something to do with the fact that it might be management run? ....Ex-BBC.net is a great independent site and i wonder if BBC Alumni know this site exists with its steady flow of useful info on a whole range of past and present topics?
