We are a national
charity and our aim is to
create an environment
where time banking can
fl ourish. We provide
inspiration, information
and practical support for
time banking to become
a part of everyday life for
everyone.
We see time banking
as the best way to
restore a sense of good
neighbourliness, to
rebuild our communities
and to encourage people
to be active citizens and
work together for a civil
society and for social
justice.

People are assets
The real wealth of any society
is its people. Every individual
has valuable experience, skills
and connections to contribute
to the wellbeing of others in
their local community.
Redefining work
Activities such as bringing
up children, caring for people,
keeping communities safe,
fighting injustice and making
democracy work have to be
recognised and rewarded as
real work.
Working together
We need each other.
Giving and receiving are
the basic building blocks of
positive social relationships
and healthy communities.
Improving our communities
Belonging to a mutually
supportive and secure
social network brings more
meaning to our lives and new
opportunities to rebuild our
trust in one another.
Empowerment
The voices of those we are
helping must be respected,
amplifi ed, responded to
and acted upon. |
