What is the Hub?

The Hub belongs solely to XRUK and is designed and maintained by our XRUK Digital teams. The Hub is used for a number of different things however its main purpose is to store our UK group information:

The Hub maintains transparency by displaying our Self-Organising System [SOS], e.g. how our groups / teams / circles interact with each other; it shows us who's in a role and it also gives us their peferred method of contact. This is extremely useful because it makes it really easy to find the right people to talk to. The Hub also keeps track of the structure of XRUK groups - see My Groups.

We also use the Hub to connect many of our other tools and programs (e.g. Mattermost and UK Cloud) that rebels use to organise online.
