With a membership of over 600 Round Hill residents,
The Round Hill Community Noticeboad Facebook Group
[https://www.facebook.com/groups/1278271078868009],
launched in April 2016, provides far more informants than we have ever had before on any website local to our neighbourhood.

You can either post a request (e.g. for a good plumber) or you can click the SEARCH symbol at the top right of the page (just to the right of the INVITE button) and enter the word "plumber". All previous posts which mention the word "plumber" will then be displayed.
