About us

We are a small group of volunteers and proud of our community, thinking an online hub at the centre of everything can only be helpful.

Whilst our site structure is fairly static, we try to keep the information up to date. The business directory and the new events calendar both need frequent updating, so do let us know if there’s something missing. We also host the online version of The Portobello Reporter with back-numbers, back to 2001

We aim for an all inclusive audience who have a say in what is included in these pages, provided it is informative, non-political, and non-divisive. Please tell us what you like and dislike and we’ll try to make adjustments. Use the contact form and we’ll respond as soon as possible.

Support us?

We are always on the lookout for help! Perhaps you’re good at finding titbits and writing content, or perhaps you’re good with WordPress. There are many ways to help us, apart from the design, graphics and all the techy stuff which can always be improved. If you think you can help, you probably can so please get in touch.

There are a few ongoing costs too, so you could support us by making a small donation to help cover some of these costs. For example the cost of hosting is around £80pa and there are costly plugins that we might want to make further improvements to the site. Any amount will be gratefully received.

Suggested donations are:
Individuals £5
‘Not for Profit’ Groups £10
You can also be a sponsor with a link on our homepage for £20pa.

It’s easy to donate with PayPal or debit/credit Card:
