About TownSpot
Feel part of where you live.
TownSpot helps people connect with where they live through hyperlocal listings and automated local newsletters.
Back in 2019, Mike noticed something frustrating in Kentish Town: there were brilliant local events, workshops, and community activities happening all around, but neighbours had no clue they existed. Amazing local life was thriving and people were missing out.
The solution started with a simple weekly WhatsApp digest of local gigs, talks, and pop-ups. Mike then realised this wasn't just about sharing events, it was about helping communities connect with where they live. That experiment became a platform that lets locals become community editors, curating hyperlocal listings in their own areas and turning them into automated local newsletters.
Today, TownSpot helps:
- Residents discover amazing activities happening just around the corner
- Local businesses and venues reach more neighbours
- Local editors build sustainable community hubs in their own areas and earn money through sponsorships with our comprehensive how-to guide
We believe local life should be visible, joyful, and genuinely human. Not buried in Facebook groups where the good stuff gets lost amongst posts about bad parking and lost cats. That's why we've built automated local newsletters from hyperlocal listings, creating digital community spaces that actually work.
TownSpot is now thriving across growing neighbourhoods throughout the UK. We're proudly independent, fiercely local, and expanding fast.
