The Digital Platform
Web App
For those that might struggle using a smartphone or simply prefer to work from a larger laptop or home computer, we have built a web-app version of the app that uses the same login details and operates from the same back-end system. If you are a group admin or are posting content regularly, the web-app may help make that process more efficient.
Mobile App
Downloadable to Android or iOS, you will need a Dragon Connect Code to register. You can search for and connect with old friends and members local to you, plus you can join a wide range of regimental, social, career, well-being or interest groups that are supported with event and chat functions. We have a full-time help desk to assist you if you have any problems help@militaryapp.org
Website
This website offers a public-facing space to find details about RHQ, the Regiment, and the Associations. It will provide snippets of news updates and an area to view Regimental information. However, Royal Welsh Family members can join the App or web app for far more content and a much greater opportunity to connect.
What is different about
Dragon Connect?
Our community has been spread out without one place for members and family to connect and engage: When you or your partner leave the Regiment it is easy to become disconnected; Social media sites can be hard to control and often there is too much white noise. Regimental Headquarters use a CRM email system for outward communications but are restricted in their ability to connect one member to another or support large numbers of smaller social engagements; Often it is very difficult for isolated families, serving soldiers or veterans to search for and meet with other members of the The Royal Welsh family in their town or county.
​
The Dragon Connect app and web-app platform offer a private space with a Pinboard to share photos, updates and digital Journals; private groups, events and chat to strengthen unit identity, build esprit de corps and support local activity; Member’s identity shows their cap-badge as well as any number of affiliated or antecedent regiments, with the ability to search by service dates, postings, location and industry; A Support Suite with over 650 selected support videos and a library of 250+ searchable support charities. All this can help to generate organic community growth and act as an all informed net for us all to access when we feel like it.
