Suggestions so far:

  • Environmental / recycling information
  • Information about items for exchange, sale and produce surpluses
  • Information, with photos, of community members who have moved away from the area
  • Local pictures with witty captions
  • Local history
  • An archive of previous photos, from the photo of the month
  • Neighbourhood Watch
  • Now that we have a resurgent cricket club, several golfers and other sportsmen and many young people in the area, could we have a sport section and a youth section?
  • Heating Oil: buying collectively, 3 people have mentioned this so far, and the following information has been supplied by Tom:
    It may be worth the website having an online list for people interested in collective buying of heating oil – there are 2 websites – boilerjuice.com, and heatingoil.co.uk, where you can build a post code & collective volume list, pick a delivery date and ask for a collective quote – obviously the more people / volume the better the price
    Would anyone like to take this on?
