A local social network where users can buy and sell goods or services from people in their neighbourhoods

Neighborly connects local people with each other, helping everyone get more out of - and give more back to - their communities and neighbourhoods.

It was launched in March 2020, originally to help our local community in East London keep each other informed about COVID-19 related issues.

The app's ease of use meant it quickly developed a broader purpose - with users posting about all kinds of things, like the best dog walking spots, where to get the best coffee, and if anyone could recommend a tradesperson to carry out a particular task or service.

It was this last point that made us think - what if we could let tradespeople create profiles, take bookings, and then receive payment and reviews directly through the app? So we developed the Neighborly marketplace for just that.
