Everybody Needs Good Neighbours
streetlife.com the local social network, on a mission to strengthen community spirit.
A new website has launched across Westbrook, Callands Etc. with a simple aim: to help people make the most of where they live by connecting with their neighbours.
Streetlife, the local social network, provides a free and easy way for communities to share news, views, recommendations and resources. Described as “the online equivalent of chatting over the garden fence”, Streetlife enables people with busy routines or reduced mobility to keep in touch with what’s happening locally and become more involved in their communities
More than a quarter of a million people in over 1,200 communities across the country have adopted Streetlife and now Westbrook, Callands Etc. locals are joining in.
Conversations started on Streetlife have helped to find lost pets, save local pubs, expose doorstep scammers and set up community garden projects.
The site also encourages real world friendships, with neighbours sharing DIY equipment, IT advice and dentist recommendations, and organising walking groups and coffee mornings.
Matt Boyes, Founder & CEO, is delighted to see the people of Westbrook, Callands Etc. connecting on Streetlife:
