Weekly Update...

Wow - what a busy week it's been for The Harpenden Guide.  Here's just a few highlights to keep you all in the loop with some of the exciting updates and developments...

Recycling Information Added - Thanks to the suggestion of one of our App Users - Deborah Carroll, we've now added a great new section under the 'Community Directory' that provides you with all the local recycling points plus details on the days for local street collections (never forget which bin is being collected on which day again!).  Plus we've also listed the local charity shops that take donations too.

Welcome Aboard - Welcome aboard to all the new businesses who have listed on the Business Directory this week.  Special welcomes to our new Silver and Gold Partners - Heartwood Garden Design, Showtime Circus, STANTA and Rothamsted Enterprises.  Plus a special mention too for local charity Hornbeam Wood Hedgehog Sanctuary (we never knew there was a Hedgehog Sanctuary in Harpenden)!

Ofsted Inspections - We've finished adding links to all the Ofsted Inspections for all local schools.  Simply look up the schools in the 'Community Directory' and you'll find a link out to the latest Ofsted inspection.

Dropping through your door - Our local postcard campaign got underway and over 750 households in the  Southdown area have now received details about the app. This marketing campaign will be continuing over the coming weeks to ensure that local people don't miss out and are aware of this fabulous new local resource.

Social Media - Our Social Media Genius - Georgia has been busy keeping the world up-to-date on our social media channels so if you're not following us yet on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter do that now!

'Latest Updates' now added to the App - We've linked out to this Blog directly from the App and incorporated a 'Latest Updates' feature so you can keep bang up-to-date with all the latest additions, new features and updates that we've added to constantly improve and develop the App.

The Harpenden Guide really is the 'gift that keeps giving' so keep 'em peeled for more updates and don't forget to share the love and shout about The Harpenden Guide to all your local family and friends too.

Spread the Word... Share the love...
