Essex Map relaunch is now live
Posted on: November 6, 2023
It’s finally here! The Essex Map relaunch has landed. We’re hoping you have an improved user experience when searching for activities, groups and services in your area. If you see there is something missing which supports the wider community please add it on to the Essex Map.
This is an assist for organisations big and small within the Voluntary, Community, Faith and Social Enterprise sector, as well as statuary and local government who provide services and activities which supports their communities needs and helps them to thrive.
How to use the new Essex Map:
- You will need to sign up for a new account (unfortunately due to the large amount of data on the Map we were unable to move over everyone’s accounts). Click on ‘login’ and scroll to the bottom of the pop up to ‘create an account’.
- Once you’ve done this please find your listing and ‘claim it’. The Essex Map team will receive a notification to accept your claim. If you have a work email address please claim any listings through this email.
New features:
