Who ?
It could be you!
Ourlocality is everyone, and anyone with an East Lothian connection.

In fact anyone with a legitimate connection with the county can claim a site and start publishing within minutes.
How ?
We use a popular opensource software platform, based on WordPress, with lots of security built-in.
We foster an environment that encourages free thinking, debate and communication.
We want local democracy to flourish and provide people a platform for any cause, however small.
