Launched in June 2010, TiYK is an Insider’s Guide to Lovely Local Things to See and Do in the UK celebrating everything from gorgeous shops and cafes to walks, workshops and ‘crafternoons’. They encourage savvy in-the-know locals/business owners to share their most favourite lovely local places to ‘eat, drink, walk, think, potter, ponder, snuggle, shop or sleep.’ By providing each contributor with a small accreditation on the site, TiYK provide a brilliant platform for small businesses to increase their visibility whilst delivering the very best insider knowledge to their readers.

Over the last 12 months, TiYK has firmly established itself as a trusted guide for those seeking unique and lovely things to see and do, whilst evoking a strong sense of patriotism and community spirit. The girls have been hugely encouraged by the support shown by likeminded local businesses. Holly and Sophie of notonthehighstreet.com, Nicola Barron of Homemade London and the team at Clapham based Lisa Stickley are just a few of the lovely folk who have contributed to TiYK.
