Community Connection
We became an us. Your customers can too.
We’re building a community across North Hertfordshire, and we’d love your shop to be part of it.
We Became Us partners with local shops, libraries, and cafés across North Hertfordshire, placing conversation cards in the spaces people already visit, sparking real conversations and leaving customers with a smile.
Something is starting in the local community, and this page is your invitation. Whether we have spoken already or this is the first time you are hearing about us, we would love your business to be part of it.
Just this: something small and playful, left out for your customers to discover and enjoy. No app, no sign-up, nothing for you to run, just a bit of fun that gives the people who already walk through your door a reason to talk to each other, and maybe leave with a smile.
We bring it to you and handle the details. You just make the space, and give your customers a reason to come back.
What you get
- A conversation game for your counter – pick up and play, no setup
- Your logo on our site and social, as a founding North Hertfordshire partner
- Part of the movement – featured alongside every shop, library and café taking part
- Shared impact – 10% of our future net profit goes back to our local ecosystem, funding projects that connect people
Local businesses,
building community, together.
If we see eye to eye, let’s discuss how else we can support each other and help make a real change in the community
Bring Fun Into Your Shop
These are a few examples of our question cards. Bring them to your business and help spark fun conversations with your customers.
Why we are doing this
We believe connection shapes every part of our lives. When people feel connected, they do better at work, their relationships grow stronger, they’re happier, and they take better care of themselves. That’s why we’re building a movement across North Hertfordshire, powered by an economic engine of connection games.
We’ve started with a game for couples, with more coming for families, friends, and workmates. By partnering with us, your shop helps people reconnect while becoming known as a place that cares about the community.
Get involved
Run a shop, café, restaurant, library or any kind of local business in North Hertfordshire, or a community newsletter? Whether you’ve already spoken with us or you’re reaching out for the first time, we’d love to hear from you.
