Dear Neighbour

Who said the community spirit in Britain was dead?

Who said people don't help each other any more, or there was no such thing as society?

If anyone wants proof of how much people are prepared to help their neighbours - locally and nationally - then please direct them to this website.

On AskYourNeighbour they'll find overwhelming evidence that British people still care about their communities.

Thousands of people are visiting AskYourNeighbour regularly to swap advice and information.

Also, to date 4,588 businesses are reaching new clients and contacts through our Local Adviser scheme.

So, wherever you are in the UK, it's great news you're visiting askyourneighbour.com

You're not alone - the site is currently enjoying thousands of hits a month, and 156,452 local and national questions have been asked since the site went online in March 2004.

AskYourNeighbour is already Britain's biggest community network, linking 30,512 neighbourhoods.

Please spread the word about AskYourNeighbour among your friends, family, colleagues; and, of course, your neighbours.

We welcome community-spirited people and businesses, who appreciate that often the first step towards getting something back is putting something in.

If you have any questions about how the site works, or need more information about our Local Adviser programme for businesses and our GoodNeighbour programme for individuals and not-for-profit groups and charities, then please drop me an email or give me a call.

I would be delighted to hear from you as we take the view that user feedback is vital to the development of the site. Users frequently know more about how the site really works than we do!

And remember, our neighbours can be our closest friends.

Best wishes
