TimeBank Hull and East Riding upcoming events

Just take a look at some of the amazing events that TimeBank Hull & East Riding are holding over the next month or 2!

Why not get involved? You may be thinking ‘how does timebanking work?’ here’s a quick run down:

For every hour’s help a member gives another, (eg guitar lesson, digging garden, giving a massage), they receive one time credit which they can spend on receiving help from another member (eg fixing a bike, setting up a wifi connection, hanging some wallpaper).

Time credits are banked in the TimeBank using a software package called TimeOnline and the TimeBank timebroker matches up the giver and receiver.

Just take a look at their website for more information http://www.timebankhullandeastriding.co.uk/
