With more than 15,000 neighbourhood communities using Nextdoor in the UK, we wanted to recognise and thank those who make their communities a better place by launching the Good Neighbour Awards 2018.
Nominations were submitted by neighbours who who were inspired and touched by the actions of individuals to improve their community with acts of selflessness.
Jan recognised the need for a social club to tackle loneliness and isolation in her neighbourhood of Crowhill, Nuneaton. She reached out on Nextdoor, arranged a meeting & expected only a few people to turn up. On the day 10 people came together and one year on, the group has grown to 30. They meet twice a week for coffee, walks, games and lunch. The group has provided a new lease of life to many of the members who feel it has saved their lives.
Nextdoor is the private social network for you neighbourhood, available at www.nextdoor.co.uk or via the app store (iOS and android). When neighbours start talking, good things happen.
