A community is a group of independent businesses that give a city, town or village an identity that locals and visitors can connect to. A good example would be Bath.
A large City like Bristol is a community but will also have neighbourhoods that acts as another way for businesses to group under a geographical identity. As an examples Clifton and North Street are neighbourhoods within Bristol community.

We only work with communities who meet our strict independent quality threshold. There is no other community like xplore in the world and we take huge pride in being the gatekeepers of it.
First, we only work with communities who want to work with us. We don’t sell, we inform, and try to let our existing communities do the talking for us.
Second, there has to be an active and engaged community of independent business who are willing to work together on behalf of their community but also as part of xplore's community.
Third, communities must have a clear geographical identity that locals or visitors can connect to. This identity can be as a community or as a neighbourhood within a community.
Let us introduce your community and its independent businesses to them.
