Leicestershire County Council's Timebank

[james oflynn]

Hello, i just wanted to let practitoners know about the new Timebank that we have launched here @ LCC.
Its aimed initially at organisations that operate in the social care, health and community sectors as an oportunity for them to share the skills and assets that they posses, to further their own business aims, and the aims of people who access their services.

It's early days but the sign up has been good with over 20 organisations signing up in the first few weeks, with loads of great offers such as SROI training, space, minibus's etc etc. Happy to share any insight and learning as the pilot develops or to welcome new members in the County.

Regards

James O'Flynn

James, great news!

Have you had an opportunity to meet with Matthew McStravick from the Hackney Shares borough-wide timebank? He's Project Manager, and might be a helpful person to talk to in thinking about the longer term development of the LCC Timebank.

We look forward to hearing more about your learning in coming months.

Best regards,

Sarah
