A few months ago, we launched the Greener Leith Social, as 'the social network for everyone who loves Leith,' with aim of providing a forum for Leithers to discuss the issues of the day, and network better online.

We weren't sure whether it would take off, but now that it has nearly 200 local members we felt that there was scope to integrate this site with the social a little better.

So, you may have noticed that we've redesigned our website a little bit. We've got three columns now, and whilst the blog is still 'front and centre' the extra column allows us to show some of the latest activity from the Greener Leith Social on our main site too.

However, the best thing about our redesign is that the events page is back! It now shows the next 10 upcoming events that people have added onto the Greener Leith Social. We've always found it a lot of work to keep updating the events page, as there is always so much going on in Leith. By using the events calendar on the Greener Leith Social, it means that anyone who is registered on the Greener Leith Social can add and promote their own events, and everything will update without generating any extra work. 

Check out our new 'social' events page here: http://www.greenerleith.org/events/

And if anyone reading this runs their own Leith focussed website, you could add the same events to your website using this rss feed:

If you haven't joined the Greener Leith Social yet, we'd love it if you did!
