Rob Chapman

CEO

I live in Oxford with my wife and daughters. I love being part of local community groups, but struggle to keep up! I'm building Neya to help everyone feel like they can get the most out of the communities around them.

Josh Wreford - CTO of Neya, software engineering expert with extensive B2C experience

Josh Wreford

CTO

I moved from Devon to London and experienced the difficulty of finding community connection. I’ve spent 16 years building technology products that delight people, including at Spotify, Gousto, Trainline and others.

Harry Hobson

I have always been fascinated by what makes communities thrive. I started Neighbourly Lab, which researches this question and runs the Government’s Tackling Loneliness Hub. I live just outside Oxford (near Thame) with my son and my golden-retriever.
