Ampthill & Flitwick Timebank – For every hour you spend sharing your skills, you get an hour back from someone else, to help with those jobs you cannot manage, or even help you develop a new skill or hobby. From dog walking to painting (your walls or a watercolour!), from support with those admin tasks to tuition on a musical instrument or in a foreign language, there is virtually no end to the skills you can offer or receive.
St Ives & Fenstanton Time Bank
Our timebank covers a huge area around St Ives and Fenstanton, with members as far afield as the Hemingfords, Needingworth, Godmanchester and Huntingdon. We have been going since 2013 and always welcome new members.
Somersham and Pidley Timebank was started in 2011 in the Huntingdonshire villages of Somersham and Pidley. We arrange time exchanges (skill sharing / neighbour help) for all our members and also other residents in our communities. Our time exchanges vary from gardening, pet care, baking, transport to basic DIY and many other things!
Our Timebank is open to everyone and we hold regular events when restrictions allow of coffee mornings, knitting group, craft sessions and larger community events such as Lake Fun Day and Apple Day.
Ramsey Timebank in the heart of rural Huntingdonshire was set up by Ramsey Neighbourhoods Trust (RNT) in August 2018. Our time exchanges vary from baking to basic DIY, shopping to prescription collection. We also run a number social groups including a games afternoon, crochet and craft clubs.
Our time bank is open to everyone, as we believe everyone has something to offer. We put on larger community activities, when restrictions allow, but for the moment many of our activities have gone online. We welcome new members and we will give you all the help you need to get started.
We are passionate about spending our time engaging with the community and other local organisations, offering support to everyone. Members’ ages range from 6 to 96, and with over 175 members who support each other, our exchanges range from simple DIY to prescription collection and much much more. Visit our website here.
