What are activities?

Community activities on Made Open platforms are ways for individuals, families, and volunteers to connect, participate, and engage locally.

They include a variety of activity types on the platform (depending on which features you have licensed):

• Listings – Information about local groups, services, or community resources.
• Events – Workshops, meetups, classes, or social gatherings you can attend.
• Volunteering opportunities – Ways to get involved and support local projects or organisations.
• Job vacancies – Local roles and positions available within community organisations.
• Offers / Requests – People sharing or seeking help, resources, or support.
• Challenges – Community-driven tasks or campaigns that encourage participation and collaboration.
• Conversations – Discussions or forums where members can connect, share advice, or ask questions.

All of these activity types can be found by users within the activity stream - which is sometimes also streamed on to the homepage.
