How To Login

If you are logging into the system for the first time, click here. Otherwise following the instructions below.

In your browser type the URL of your U3A's website (typically this will be https://u3a.simplemembership.co.uk/U3AName) which will take you to the website ‘home screen’. You may find it useful to save this page into your Favourites on your web browser.

On the menu click Login, and then on the page that appears enter your Username and Password and click “Log In”. This will take you back to the ‘home screen’ within the system.

If you wish to see that you have entered your password correctly check the box next to “Show Password”.

If you forget your password click the link “Forgot Password” on the log-in page, then enter your Username on the page that comes up and click “Reset Password”. This will send an email to the email address held for you within the system. Follow the instructions on that email to reset your password (see below under Logging In for the First Time), and then log in with your new password.

If you forget your Username, please contact your Membership Secretary who will be able to remind you what it is.

Logging Out

Click on the Logout button in the top of any of the screens within the system, or click Logout on the menu. You do not need to return to the Home page to log out.

Note:
1. you will be logged out automatically after 30 minutes of inactivity - a warning chime will alert you to this 2 mins. before you are logged out along with a pop-up message allowing you to continue.
2. it is good practice, for security reasons, to log out before leaving your device unattended for any significant period.
