The welovelocal Blog

This introduction is a little late coming as I have met quite a few of you already - others may have seen me around on the site. Anyway I will formally introduce myself; I am Helen, the latest addition to the welovelocal team. I have been here for three weeks now and I must admit it is pretty damn exciting. I am really enjoying getting familiarised with the site and its great community. Speaking of community, I suppose it would be a good time to mention that I am now the first port of call for all welovelocal community related issues, and most importantly this lovely blog! I must admit I am a bit of a fan of blogging, I think it is due to the fact that I have so much to say all the time (I like to call it passion).

Ok, so here is the bit about me, I am going to attempt make this as least cringe-worthy as possible. I am a huge fan of London and a real advocate for everything local. As someone who has just moved to the city from the sleepy south coast I spend most of my free time exploring. I actually can’t believe how helpful some of the reviews that are written on here are. I plan my weekends based on the descriptions that I read in the week (thank you reviewers!). I spend all my other time crafting, baking and seeking out vintage bargains oh and I dabble in indoor skydiving. I suppose my reviews provide a good insight into what I like and don’t like.

So that’s me covered, it would be good to know a bit more about all of you out there using the site, and not just individuals. It would be awesome to get to know more about all the active local communities out there in London and across the UK. So if you’re out there it would be cool if you drop me a line and say ‘hi’.
