A NEW social network based on people helping one another is launching in Frome and wants new members.
Helpfulpeeps, founded by Simon Hills and Saf Nazeer, says it is on a mission to bring back community spirit in an increasingly disconnected world.
Since launching in Bristol last year, the team have grown Helpfulpeeps into an online community of over 30,000 members sharing their time, skills and knowledge to help each other for free.
They have a simple ethos: ‘ask for help when you want and help others when you can’.
“It’s a fantastic way to get involved in your community, restore your faith in humanity and make new friends,” says co-founder, Saf.
“The website tells you who needs help with what and where, and puts you in touch directly. Whether it’s cat-sitting or learning a new language, moving a sofa or lending a hand at a charity event, simply post your request and ask for help.
“Members can then respond by commenting or via private message to work out the details between you.”
To become a member go to www.helpfulpeeps.com and sign up. It’s totally free and always will be.
