TimeBanking UK

TimeBanking UK is a community-based exchange system where individuals trade services based on time rather than money. Participants offer skills—such as gardening, tutoring, or handyman work—and earn "time credits" for each hour volunteered, which can then be used to receive services from others in the network. This model fosters mutual support, encourages community engagement, and promotes social inclusion, emphasizing that everyone’s time is equally valuable. It operates on the principles of reciprocity and shared benefit, strengthening local connections by enabling people to help one another regardless of economic status.
