Description:
The perfect community is made up of helpful neighbours, regular litter pickers - and a decent local pub, according to research. <br/><br/>A poll of 2,000 Brits also found well-maintained community gardens, reliable public transport and a running or walking group are important to create a wholesome environment to live in. <br/><br/>Others think low crime rates, small local businesses and a convenience store nearby are also key. <br/><br/>Living in a nice community means 68 per cent take pride in their local area and will do what they can to make it a friendly and welcoming place. <br/><br/>The research was commissioned by SPAR UK [https://www.spar.co.uk/community/community-cashback/], which is launching its third Community Cashback scheme, giving away a total of £100,000 in grants to local voluntary or community organisations and charities on behalf of its shoppers. <br/><br/>Suzanne Dover, from the community retailer, said: \
