Lockyer Valley TimeBank

WHat is Timebanking?

  • Timebanking is a community network that allows the voluntary exchange of services between members.

  • You spend an hour helping someone - that earns you a one hour Time Credit - you can spend that credit by having another member provide a service to you, such as ironing, gardening, have a massage, learn quitar, painting, computer assistance etc

  • Everyone can be part of Timebanking because everyone has something to offer.

  • Everyone's time is worth the same - ie one hour of gardening is the same as one hour teaching computer skills.

    See the first minute of this short video to see how it works. . .

Why Join TimeBank?

Joining a TimeBank helps you, and at the same time, it helps our whole community. TimeBanking builds relationships of trust, caring and give-and-take.

Through a TimeBank we:

  • Get to know people who live around us

  • Have fun, build connections

  • Support and care for one another

  • Increase the well-being of people and the community

  • Learn new skills and share skills with others,

  • Do more of what we love and less of what we don't! - Love gardening and dislike ironing, do someone gardening for an hour and spend your credit having your ironing done.
