“As a new mum and being fairly new to this neighbourhood, I was feeling lonely and overwhelmed by the challenges of motherhood. But thanks to Being Neighbourly I have found a supportive and friendly community of fellow mums who have helped me with their advice, tips and encouragement. I have also made some great friends and discovered some neighbours who share my hobby of gardening. This group has been a source of joy and comfort for me and I appreciate all the hard work and dedication that has gone into it.”

“The Being Neighbourly group is an active network for people in the community, and offers things ranging from dining recommendations, a marketplace for personal sales, daily questions and more. I have received really amazing advice (which saved us a fortune)! I will try the meet-ups next for an opportunity to meet new people and make new connections.”

“The origin of human characteristics is that we are tribal creatures, and therefore the creation of Being Neighbourly, intrinsically coupled with the sense of belonging and shared values, is an important platform that is necessary in our modern insular world.
Community building is a good thing!”

“I moved to Hong Kong in November 2022 and as someone who believes in sustainable living and a circular economy, I was in search of a community that values the same. I was pleasantly surprised to find the Buy Nothing Group. Their passion in bringing together people from different walks of life and fostering a sense of community by continuously coming up with ways to keep everyone engaged is truly remarkable. As the group now transitions to becoming an even more purposeful Being Neighbourly Group, I am very much looking forward to new opportunities to collaborate with the community and create bigger social impact.”

“I’m very grateful to have discovered this group after living in the neighbourhood for almost two decades as I had missed the days when neighbours connected and saw each other pre-Covid. This group has made it possible for us to be ‘human’ again through intimate neighbourhood events and conversations. Thank you, Being Neighbourly. I look forward to more personal and business interactions via the group!”
