The importance of communication - are you talking with your neighbours?


We here at NeighbourBlog believe communication between neighbours and communities is
essential. We have tried to improve this by creating our site, a tool that means you can
talk to your whole street, without even stepping outside! Here we have a seperate forum
for every street in London, to get us all talking with eachother. Strong communication is
important for a whole host of different reasons; neighbourhoods need to reach inward to
enable residents to get to know eachother better, take care of eachother, do things
together and improve their quality of life. In addition, they need to be able to tell
their story externally, which helps attract their next neighbour. We at NeighbourBlog
believe it's really important for neighbourhoods to have the skills to be able to utilise
technology to communicate well within their community. This is where our site comes in.
By communicating with eachother, we can cut down the risk of crime, anti-social behaviour
and other factors which may cause us distress in our homes. NeighbourBlog is a great
place to join a growing community in which we all aim to make our neighbourhood a safer,
friendlier and happier place to live.
