'Local' social network

A 'local' social networking platform has become popular in Maisemore over the past few weeks.  It's called Nextdoor.co.uk and it now has nearly 70 members within Maisemore.

This network isn't actually local but it claims to be able to keep what you see - and what others see - within the Parish. If you decide to use it, you will need to give your real name and at least part of your real address, and some residents may be reluctant to do this.  Others may take the view that it prevents rudeness and lack of respect being allowed to flourish behind the mask of a made-up user name.

Of course the Parish Council can't endorse any commercial system or service.
