What is People near me?

People near me allows you to see which members of your community are closer to you. It’s a quick way to connect with others who have similar health interests (identified by being in the same community) and similar locations.
For each person in your list of People near me, you’ll see a Follow button, which is a quick way to connect and receive updates about that user. And if you’re feeling a bit more courageous you can also visit a user’s profile page and send a message introducing yourself.
Please note HealthUnlocked encourages you to form a relationship before you share any identifiable information about yourself with another profile on your People near me list.

How it works

  • It never shows exact locations or postcodes.
