• New database and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system

A new digital platform that includes a new website, new My LI platform, and a new database. In future this will also be the platform for LI Campus, Pathway and CPD monitoring and event bookings and a new communities platform.

The LI is a service-led organisation, but our current systems are not fit for purpose. Our new digital home is about delivering greater value for members and partners by improving our services and streamlining processes, enabling better and more targeted communication.  

Our new digital home is about making LI communities more connected and collaborative and putting members at the heart of the LI.  

Our new digital home will help us to deliver impact across each of our strategic outcomes – Essential, Expert and Inclusive – to connect people, place and nature, now and in the future. 

Essential  

Better decisions and opportunities: integrated, reliable data from the new CRM informs strategy, improves efficiency, and helps the LI promote the profession. 

Sharper organisational focus: the digital home enables the LI to focus our resources on supporting our members.  

Simpler, faster interactions: streamlining services allows members and staff to focus on delivering impact with improved communication. 

Expert 

Greater independence: seamless self-service for joining, renewing, booking events, volunteering, and managing CPD to support professional growth. 

Personalised experiences: all members, regardless of location or career stage, will have a personal experience of the LI’s ecosystem of tools. 

Enhanced member insight and engagement: the new CRM will enable the LI to respond quickly to member needs and support professional development. 

Inclusive  

Inclusive access: the brand, website, and user interface are all designed to make the LI more accessible to all. 

Tailored communications: the ecosystem of tools connects members to the most relevant communications, events, and career opportunities.  

Be part of the journey: By sharing your preferences and feedback, you will help shape tools that are easier to use, connect you with peers, and support your professional growth. Together, we’ll build a platform that works for all members.

We’ll be phasing in the components of our new digital home between now and Spring 2026, offering tailored support at every stage. We’re not expecting the system to work perfectly from day one and a phased approach allows us, to test, act on this feedback and improve the system. 

Our new digital home will be the result of an ongoing process of development, testing, feedback and support. We’ll be relying on feedback from across the membership to help continuously improve the system in the months and years ahead.  

Account: You will not be able to access your MyLI account. We encourage you to wait to make any updates until after 10 November, when you can do it yourself, but please get in touch at membership@landscapeinstitute.org if you have any queries or if there is anything urgent.
