A new community project in Blackheath is launching to promote business and support events in the area by creating an online community.
 
The project, We Are Blackheath, hopes to get people involved through their website weareblackheath.com – which also has a tonne of discount offers for use throughout September.
 
Andrea Britton, founder of the project, hopes to achieve this with the help of social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter.
 
Ms Britton said: "We hope to introduce the community and residents to the folk that make our village tick and also to encourage the ‘shop local, live local’ ethos that we so strongly believe in.
 
"The community is at the heart of this project and its success will rely upon people getting involved."
