OFFERED: free roller blades, food processor and help with lifting heavy things...
I'd like to make a shameless plug for Streetbank.com in Fulham. There's currently people in your area offering to give away a toaster, roller blades and a composter for the garden. Someone is offering help with lifting heavy items and gardening and there are people willing to lend ladders, a drill and gardening equipment - amongst many other things. The site is effectively a giant attic, garden shed, toolkit, fancy dress chest and library - stock full of items to share with or give away to your neighbours. Signing up is easy: new members simply enter their postcode and add one item they would be willing to lend or give away. They then have immediate access to all the items available within 1000 yards of their home. All for free. Streetbank, although practical, fun and economical is at heart about reconnecting community, alleviating loneliness and making society a little more sociable and a little less independent. Membership is spreading rapidly in SW London and we were featured in the Daily Candy last week - but we'd love your help in making it an even bigger success in Fulham. Streetbank.com - spread the love and thanks for reading!
