We are developing a new Time Banking scheme to support you to get more involved with United Welsh and your community. 

Through the Time Banking scheme, you can gain Time Credits for giving your time to activities supported by United Welsh and our community partners.  This is your chance to get something back for making a valuable contribution to your community!

How does it work?
Time Banking is very simple.  For each hour you give, you receive a Time Credit note. 

You can gain Time Credits by giving your time to a range of different activities.  Ways you can gain Time Credits are listed in the Time In menu.

Time Credits can be used to access fun activities and events with United Welsh and our time bank partners.  Ways you can use Time Credits are listed in the Time Out menu.

How can I get the Time Credits?
To start gaining Time Credits, you need to join the scheme.  Please send us an email or give us a call and we'll send you a membership application form to complete.

United Welsh will be responsible for giving out Time Credits.  These will either be given to you during the activity or posted to you shortly afterwards. 


How can I use the Time Credits?
Once you have Time Credits, it’s up to you how you use them.  You can use them to access any of the activities / events or our partners in the Time Out menu.   

United Welsh will be organising a programme of trips throughout the year and developing training opportunities within the scheme too. 

You can give Time Credits to family / friends if you’d like them to benefit from the scheme.

There is also the option to donate Time Credits you gain to a community pot, which can then be used for group activities / events.
