Start a mutual-aid time bank in your neighbourhood

Turn an hour of help into an hour you can receive

TimeBanks connect neighbours who trade skills without cash: one hour of tutoring, transport, or garden work earns one hour you can spend when you need support. The model builds trust block by block.

What you can do

• Browse the TimeBank map and directory for an existing circle near you
• Read how TimeBanking works and list three skills you could offer this week
• Use the start a TimeBank guide if your area has no active group yet

How it works

Members log hours when they give or receive help. Coordinators run orientations, match offers to requests, and keep the ledger fair: every hour counts the same, whether you fix a bike or cook a meal.

Why it matters

Time banks keep care local when wages and prices squeeze households. They reward contributions mainstream markets overlook.
