Welcome to Club Together, the Caravan and Motorhome Club's online community platform! We're delighted to have you here as part of our community dedicated to caravanning, motorhoming, and camping enthusiasts. Our goal is to connect like-minded individuals, offering a space to share experiences, seek advice, exchange helpful tips, and form lasting friendships.

What is Club Together?

For anyone new to our community, Club Together is a dynamic online forum for members of the Caravan and Motorhome Club where users can engage in discussions, share knowledge, and connect with others on a wide range of topics. Club Together was launched in 2012 and our new platform is designed to foster community interaction and provide a space for meaningful conversations.

Getting Started with the New Platform

With our upgraded platform, engaging with fellow members has never been easier or more enjoyable. We relaunched Club Together to provide a better experience for our members using the forum. The new platform comes with enhanced features that improve usability, streamline navigation, and foster more engaging interactions among users. Our goal is to ensure that our community has access to modern forum functionalities that offer a superior user experience, making it easier to connect, share knowledge, and enjoy discussions about caravanning and motorhoming.

Do I need to create a new account for Club Together?

If you were a member of the previous Club Together and made a post or engaged on the forum, your account has been automatically transferred to the new platform.

If you have never previously engaged on Club Together you will need to register on the new forum platform if you want to participate, post and like comments. However if you just want to view and browse the forum you can do this currently without having to register. In the future some areas may be member only so you will need to then register to view member only areas.

Is my login for the Club website and Club Together the same?

If you have an existing Club Together account where you have posted or engaged on the forum, when you first login use your existing Club login details. You will then be prompted to reset your password. From that point on, your login for the Club website and Club Together are not the same. While both platforms are part of our overall services, they require separate logins to ensure secure access and tailored experiences for each platform.

Logging in

When you first login you will be asked to change your password as a standard internet security practice to ensure your account remains secure. 

Here's a step-by-step guide to help you log in to our new forum platform:

  1. Reset Your Password:
    • When you first attempt to log in to the new platform, you will be prompted to reset your password. This step is essential to ensure your account remains secure.
    • Follow the instructions to create a new, secure password. Once updated, use this password to access the forum.
  2. Access Community Guidelines and Terms and Conditions:
    • As part of our commitment to a positive community experience, it's important to re-read our Community Guidelines and Terms and Conditions. You can find these documents in the 'Quick Links' section on the right-hand side of the website.
    • Understanding these guidelines is crucial as they foster a respectful and engaging environment for all members.
  3. Confirm Your Agreement:
    • After reviewing the guidelines, you will need to confirm your agreement. Go to your profile area and tick the box indicating that you have read and agree to abide by the community rules.
    • This confirmation is required to enable posting and full participation in the forum.

How do I create an account?

If you are new to Club Together, or you have not previously engaged on the forum, you will need to create an account to participate fully in the forum discussions and access all available features.

Creating an account is simple! Click on the "Sign Up" button on our homepage, fill in the required details, and verify your email address. Once verified, you can start participating in discussions immediately.

You can choose to fill in your profile information and this is optional. Your profile can be made private if you prefer. The only thing we do ask you to confirm is your membership number if you are a member of the Club and that you have read and agree to the Community Guidelines and Terms and Conditions of Club Together.

Groups on Club Together are dedicated spaces for members with niche hobbies and interests to connect and share their passions.

Joining a group allows you to dive deeper into topics you care about and build relationships within the community.
