how it works...

1. Sign up for an account using your postcode.
2. Add one thing that you would be prepared to help with, lend or give away.
3. See people within one mile of you, and all their things.

Sally had a spade, Jack needed to borrow a spade...

For Example

...Jack needs a spade to plant a tree in his garden. He joins Streetbank by putting in his postcode and finds that Sally down the road has one which she hardly ever uses. Jack borrows the spade and now, when he meets Sally in the road they smile and say hello.
