I have recently joined the team behind LondonSwedes.com to work on improving the content on the website. As part of my role, I am going to work very closely with the Founder, Charlotte and Head of Business, Shaniaz to identify new articles and allocate the jobs to a growing group of semi-professional writers.
What is LondonSwedes?
LondonSwedes is the largest website for the Swedish and Scandinavian community in London and the UK. Since 2003, over 20 000 members have joined and the website currently has over 25 000 unique monthly visitors. The website is often quoted in Swedish press and has developed into a very informative source of information relating to London and the challenges facing Swedes moving there.The objective of LondonSwedes is to be the premier resource for Swedes and Scandinavians coming to the UK, either as tourists, students, or working professionals.
LondonSwedes is working closely with Swedish businesses as well as the Swedish Chamber of Commerce, the Swedish Embassy and the Swedish Church in London to provide updated information about London and beyond, which may be of interest to the approximately 100 000 Swedes who live in the UK, with about 500 000 Swedish tourists visiting the UK capital annually.
Areas being improved
We are currently looking to refresh and expand the sections for families, students and businesses, as well as adding a daily blog. We have also identified writers with special interest in culture and the residential market, so you should see more articles in those areas soon too. As we grow and secure further funding, more content will be provided.If you have any information which could be of interest to Swedes and Scandinavians living in the UK, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
