It's Time to Share!
WHAT IS THE TIME BANK
AND HOW DOES IT WORK

It's very simple - for every hour you give helping someone else you are entitled to one credit (an hour) in return

Your credits are recorded on  a computer for you to spend when you need them. You will get regular statements of your Time Bank Account.

Everybody's time is valued equally because we've all got what it takes to help other people!

All members have a personal contact with the Time Bank and can get support to make sure that there is a high standard of care at all times.

Being in the Time Bank will not effect people's benefits.

You don't need money to join - it's FREE!


If you need some kind of help and are not sure what you can offer, get in touch! The Time Bank can still help you.
Hours recently exchanged between members include: Holiday - French and Spanish, Astrology Charts, Indian Head Massage. House-sitting, dog walking and decorating.

Make time for each other!

DERBYSHIRE WILDLIFE FUND - HEDGEROW SURVEY

Derbyshire Wildlife Trust has recently obtained funding from Defra to undertake a hedgerow survey across the borough of Chesterfield. The project will be carried out over the spring and summer. The survey will gather data on the distribution, status and condition of hedgerows within the borough which will then be used to inform future hedgerow conservation work. Derbyshire Wildlife Trust are currently looking for volunteers to help with these surveys. Full training will be given so no prior experience is required. However, a basic knowledge of common tree, shrub and flower species would be an advantage.
Does this sound like something you'd like to get involved in? If so, please get in touch so I can provide you with further information. Any time spent either receiving the training or completing the surveys can earn you hours.
We look forward to hearing from you very soon.
