What other families see

When you put your name to something, this is what shows up next to it. It helps people work out whether their kid will know anyone.

kids aged 7, 10

Show my name and photoOff means you still count toward the number, you just appear as an unnamed family. Your photo is hidden with your name, never separately.Show my kids’ agesAges only, never names. This is how someone with a twelve-year-old works out if there’ll be anyone their kid’s age.

How you hear about things

A board nobody checks is the same as no board. Nothing here needs you to come and look.

Weekly email digestOne message, once a week. New ideas and anything close to going ahead.Text when something I’m in opens for placesOnly for things you’ve already put your name to, and this is the one that matters: miss it and the window closes without you.Text when something short-notice goes upBeach tomorrow, park this afternoon. Useless if you find out the day after.

Using this on more than one device?

Optional, and there is no password. Give us an email and we send a link. Open it on your phone as well as your laptop and both count as one family, so what you put your name to in one place shows up in the other.

Membership

Pay what you can, a month, per family, not per child. This is not for profit and it doesn’t pay anyone a wage: it covers the texts, the emails and the running costs, and that’s all. Activities are priced separately.

What it costs to run this for one family.
