    Hi all

    A quick post to let you know that there’ll be some work carried out on the RAC Community homepage this week.

    We’re carrying out a ‘facelift’ of the homepage - check out the designs here - and the community will be taken offline during the work.

    The homepage design work will start at 12noon on Wednesday and we expect it to last no longer about two hours.

    During that time you'll see the message: 'Sorry, the community is unavailable at the moment'.


    One of the improvements coming is that we’re greatly reducing the number of sections in the community, to make it easier to navigate (especially those using mobiles). I’m going to start working on this from today, so don’t worry if a section suddenly ‘disappears’! Of course, we’re not losing any threads or posts, just merging them.

    I will of course keep this post updated! 👍

    Update Wed 7 Dec 10.40am

    We're on track to start at 12noon. For up to 2 hours you'll just see the maintenance message.

    Update Wed 7 Dec 1pm

    We're nearly there. Here's a post about the new homepage going live
