A Central Hub for Stoke-on-Trent

The Knot Life is a new, community-driven platform designed to be the heart of Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding areas. It was created to unite local people, businesses, and organisations, providing a space where residents can connect, share stories, and explore what’s happening in their city. Whether you're looking for local events, cultural insights, or business recommendations, The Knot Life is here to bring the community together and foster a positive impact on the city.

Who Is It For?

The Knot Life is designed for everyone in Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire. From families and individuals to local businesses and community organisations, the platform offers something for everyone. Whether you're a resident looking to engage with your local area or a business aiming to reach the community, The Knot Life is your go-to destination.

Phased Development for Comprehensive Coverage

The Knot Life is being developed in phases, each designed to focus on different aspects of life in the region:

• Phase One: Focuses on culture, arts, events, history, and places to visit. This phase will highlight the rich cultural heritage of Stoke-on-Trent, including its theatre scene, museums, and local landmarks.

• Phase Two: Will cover places to eat and drink, as well as nightlife. Expect insights into local restaurants, cafes, pubs, and places to enjoy an evening out.

• Phase Three: Will expand to cover businesses, retail, shops, and places with high footfall. Local businesses will get their time in the spotlight, along with a focus on green spaces and music in the community.

• Phase Four: Dedicated to services, such as plumbers, mobile mechanics, driving instructors, and other essential local businesses. This phase will ensure that residents have access to reliable service providers.

• Phase Five: The final phase will see The Knot Life evolved into a Community Interest Company (CIC). The platform will not only serve the community but also give back by redistributing profits through community grants, and helping local projects and initiatives thrive.

Free and Accessible for All

One of the key principles of The Knot Life is inclusivity. The platform is completely free to use for everyone, whether you’re a business, a resident, or a community group. However, there is also an affordable paid option for businesses that want extra features and exposure, allowing them to support the platform while benefiting from additional visibility.

Partnered with TheKnot.News

The Knot Life works directly with The Knot News, its sister site, which focuses on delivering the latest news and updates from Stoke-on-Trent. Together, these platforms aim to provide a comprehensive online resource for the city, combining community engagement with news coverage.

Building a Brighter Future for Stoke-on-Trent

The ultimate goal of The Knot Life is to become the one-stop shop for everything happening in Stoke-on-Trent and its surrounding areas. Whether you're looking for cultural activities, business information, or services, this platform aims to provide it all. More than just a website, The Knot Life is a community-led initiative, meaning the development and direction of the platform will be guided by what the community needs, not by profit.
