TAF Community

Special Interest Groups

About our SIGs

TAF runs a number of Special Interest Groups (SIGs) that bring together people who work in similar job functions or have similar interests or characteristics. The SIGs are all about building the TAF community by connecting trade association professionals from all backgrounds and at all levels.

Our SIGS are all led by members and supported by the TAF Secretariat team to deliver a range of activities including events, the sharing of information and best practice and online communities.

We have a number of SIGs that are already active or in the process of being set up, but we are also keen to explore others that would be of use to our members. Find out more below or get in touch if you would like to explore helping to run a SIG or launching a new one.

  • Support trade association PR and public affairs staff to develop their skills and professional careers, including through the provision of tailored training and development and CPD learning opportunities
  • Share best practice, discuss challenges and initiate benchmarking and research into the challenges faced by PR and public affairs in trade associations
