This could be a great way to spread the word about the site – although it relies on people having a Facebook account and I imagine the majority of Neighbours United’s demographic don’t. I think Harrogate’s top of the list when it comes to “older” people joining Facebook however – maybe because of the number of internet entrepreneurs who live here (really, there are loads!).

I’d love to help out but to be honest I know about ten people in Harrogate. I’ve only lived here six months and my social life still revolves around Leeds and the tiny little village where I grew up!
