This past weekend, ignite had its highest ever number of logins hitting three figures for the first time in a single weekend. During the three and a half day period from Friday 1st August to lunchtime on Monday 4th August 102 young people logged into ignite altogether.

Over half of these users had logged in one or more times during July, while the rest were made up of new users or users returning after not using the site for awhile.

Since the weekend, the number of logins for ignite has risen to 140 by 5pm on the date this article was published.

Currently, ignite membership is restricted to an invite-only policy. Only secondary-aged teenagers who attend one of SU Scotland's Holidays are invited to join the site. As these young people return home from their SU Holiday new members find a login letter waiting for them.

Over 200 new faces have so far logged into the site throughout July and August as a result of our holidays. 36 of these new users helped make this past weekend (and the fifth weekend of SU's holidays) the most successful one so far.
