Just say hello!

When you arrive home and one of your neighbours is on their way in or out, go over and say hello, and maybe have a brief chat - it's so different from ignoring them.

"We are busy people, but I usually find my neighbours are only too pleased to stop for a minute," says Pippa Soundy, who suggested this action.

Just Say Hello
It's also amazing to say hello to strangers as you walk in your area. I try to walk to the shops and local places and greet anyone who will look at me. It raises a smile most times, sometimes a look of surprise too. Perhaps we can become known as welcoming and happy people

Chatting to neighbours
Pippa's idea about chatting to neighbours is great and very challenging - it's all too easy to just carry on with life without even finding out who lives nearby - I will try to put this action into practice!
