What’s the problem? 3
Recruitment problems • u 3 a movement suffering from three recruitment problems • In the long term, we are recruiting fewer new members and fewer newly retired people • Short term, many members are not renewing their subscription because of Covid • u 3 a has a low public profile – outside our members, not many people know about us 4
National Membership Growth Rate 12, 0% 10, 0% 8, 0% 6, 0% 4, 0% 2, 0% 14 20 15 20 16 20 17 20 18 20 19 20 13 20 12 20 11 20 20 10 0, 0% 5
Impact of covid • The pandemic has adversely affected membership renewals. • Some u 3 as are reporting that the proportion of their members who have not renewed their subscription is between 15% and 20%
% u 3 a members under age 65 25% 20% 15% 10% 5% 0% 2001 2009 2019 7
Implications for recruitment model • Most u 3 as have been relying on word of mouth to recruit new members and replace members who do not renew their membership. • Word of mouth mainly recruits members who share the characteristics of existing members and does not engage newly retired/younger members
Wider context • Risk of becoming out of step with our potential new members • New threats from competitors (eg Rest Less) • Need for u 3 a capacity building and training • Potential opportunities created by pandemic 9
u 3 a context • New regional PR contacts • u 3 a day • Zoom tutorials etc 10
