Hello. We are Ryan, Nick and Sam. A while back we got interested in the idea of lending. Sam had had a good experience with his next door neighbours. He had been lending stuff, actually they had been lending stuff to him, small stuff mainly (like a cup of sugar) but it got bigger (like a ladder) and in time he found he was actually hanging out with his neighbours who turned out to be quite surprisingly nice once you had got to know them.
So Sam talked to Ryan and Ryan reckoned that the internet would be a handy way of sharing stuff with the community. And we realised that it could be more than just lending but giving stuff away and helping each other. And we realised that it was also be a way of getting to know your neighbour. In a moderately uncheesy way.
Then we met Nick and Nick had a special knack at building clever websites. So the three of us have been working together for the last little bit, with Nick working the hardest of all to create this site.
We hope you have a good experience with your local community. Meeting the locals is always a bit risky but we think it is a risk worth taking. We would love to hear how you get on so if you’ve got ideas about how to improve it or a nice story or even a less nice one, email us at sam@streetbank.com
