Guildford Time Bank
Guildford Time Bank – Come & Find Out More!
Come and find out about the growth and progress of the Guildford Time Bank, a way in which people share their skills and make friends.
Voluntary Action South West Surrey, that is supporting the Time Bank, is hosting two sessions for both current members and anyone who would like more details about the scheme. Time is exchanged rather than money and everyone’s time is equal – an hour for an hour.
Someone may offer to mow someone’s lawn, or undertake a spot of home decorating or maintenance and by doing so earns credits by way of hours. In turn, someone else may offer their time to them, perhaps offering computer skills or teaching them to play a musical instrument. Individuals as well as groups and organisations can become members.
The free events are:
Wednesday, July 11, The Keep pub, 29 Castle Street, Guildford GU1 3UW, from 2pm to 4pm.
Tuesday, July 24, Park Barn Centre, Park Barn Drive, Guildford GU2 8EN, from 6pm to 8pm.
Complimentary tea, coffee and refreshments will be served.
There will be presentations about the Time Bank from Voluntary Action’s Ian Ross and David Rose. There will be the opportunity to ask plenty of questions and discuss the scheme with your thoughts and ideas.
If you would like to attend, please reply to guildfordtimebank@gmail.com indicating which date, i.e. July 11 or July 24.
