Community Powered

Our Roadmap

Our team is currently developing various community and business services, which are currently being tested by a small group of individuals. Our aim is to welcome new members starting August 2023. However, we are not limiting ourselves to these services and we are open to suggestions on what other features and services we can provide to better serve our users.

Free Personal Membership Plan

If you reside or work in Colchester, you have the option to become a member of our personal membership plan for free. Initially, we had considered implementing a nominal subscription charge for this service, but we have chosen to create a Patreon page for those who wish to support us instead.

Prize Draw

Every month, we will be conducting a prize draw or a competition. Currently, the prize amount is £50 per month, but we aim to raise it significantly as we move forward. The competitions will include photo contests, short story writing, and treasure hunts.

Events Calendar

Our team will maintain a comprehensive list of local events in Colchester, featuring numerous exciting activities. Let us know what you're interested in, and we'll send you timely notifications to ensure you never miss out on anything fun to do.

Job Board

We are currently developing an innovative job board that is still confidential. However, it's safe to say that it will revolutionize the process for both businesses seeking new staff and individuals searching for new employment opportunities.

Business Pages

Many local businesses and organizations spend millions of pounds each year promoting their news, products, and services. Our goal is to assist them in increasing brand awareness and generating more sales while reducing their costs.

Find a Tradesmen

We can help you find skilled tradesmen for any job, whether it's a home renovation or a simple appliance repair. Our quality approval process is transparent, enabling you to choose the right tradesmen based on factors beyond just price.

Family and Business Services

We're seeking to team up with top-notch solicitors, accountants, mortgage brokers, and insurance providers in Colchester. Opting for or changing to our business partners is beneficial for all parties involved.

Lost and Found

Losing a pet can be a distressing experience. But don't worry, our Lost and Found service is here to help you locate your lost furry friend or any other valuable items like keys, jewelry, wallets, etc.

Parenting Services

We are looking at building a parent community called Parent Connect, courses to Learn, personalized and professional coaching through Parent Coach, and unbiased reviews of products and services through Parent Review.

Healthy Eating and Fitness

Welcome to a platform dedicated to healthy recipes, fitness plans, and schedules. By following our achievement plans, you'll earn membership rewards for staying on track. Connect with like-minded individuals who share your goals for additional motivation.

Civic Surveys & Activities

Have a say in the development of Colchester by expressing your opinions. Contributing to these efforts can enhance the quality of life, work and leisure in Colchester. Let's work together to make Colchester an even better place.

Dating & Socialising

Have you ever found yourself wishing you had someone to share your life experiences with? We are developing a socializing and dating feature that will enable you to meet new people and make new friends and you might even find the love of your life.

Join our support team

We invite you to join our team and be a part of the decision-making process for the services we offer. You will also assist us with administrative duties and marketing activities. Additionally, we will organize social gatherings to discuss our progress and plan for the future. Our goal is to build a website that caters to our community's needs, bringing them together in a powerful way.
