Thanks to all of the LGIS members who have activated their new login for the LGIS website.
For those of you who haven't, please make sure you have activated the multi-factor authentication security tool Okta on the LGIS website (member centre). You should have all received an email with an activation link that expires in seven days from when it was sent. That means if you haven't already done so, you have until next Monday (20 April 2020) to activate your account.
