Enabling Florence Road to become more environmentally friendly
This website, which was initially started to support Florence Road residents during the Covid lock downs, has been re-purposed to support the initiative started by members of the Florence Road WhatsApp group to enable Florence Road to become more environmentally friendly.
For example by:
- Sharing resources (tools, gardening equipment etc.),
- Researching green energy - e.g. information about installing solar panels or heat source pumps.
- Creating recycling points on the street for items which aren’t accepted in our recycling bins
- Supporting local shops and tradespeople
- Organising community events
- Offering items no longer needed to others in the group
This website will record information shared on the WhatsApp group which others may wish to refer to again later. A limitation of WhatsApp is that old messages about specific information can be difficult to find.
N.B. The information on the website about who is willing to lend or share resources with other residents will only be viewable by residents who have registered with this website and have a username and password.
Other information will be available to anyone visiting the website.
Become a Registered Member?
Registered and logged in members of this website will be able to:
- View who is willing to lend what resources to other residents
- The minutes of meetings of the group
Members will also receive occasional email notifications about news thought to be of interest of all residents, such as miss delivered parcels, damage done to property, burglaries, etc. You can opt out of receiving these notifications by clicking a link that will be on every notification.
If you live in Florence Road and wish to apply to be a registered member of this website please email florenceroadgroup@gmail.com giving your full name, address and email. You can also email requesting to be invited to join the WhatsApp Group.
N.B. If you were registered with the previous version of this website you are still registered with this on.
