Tendring Time Bank

Welcome to Tendring Time Bank

Registered Charity Number 1191431

At our Centre at 30a St. Osyth Road, Clacton-on-Sea, we run various activities, all chosen by members, including: Art and Craft Days, Family Research, a Men Only afternoon, and a Drop-in afternoon to play board games or cards. There is also a huge collection of foreign stamps that need sorting into countries and sets.

Help is always needed at the Centre to sort donated items, dress the windows to reflect calendar events, such as Christmas, Easter, Mothers' Day, the Saints Days, Halloween, and the Anniversary of our Open Day around the 23 April, which is also St. George's Day.

Regular volunteers are needed to cover specific days of the week, so we can increase our opening hours, and those with some admin skills can learn to enter their own exchanges to record time credits earned, spent or donated, as well as entering group exchanges and running activity reports, and keeping a check on current membership levels.

Members are welcome to pop in for a chat and a cuppa whenever they are feeling the need for some company, or need some help or information.

Skills shared are wide and varied, and cover things such as Knitting, Crochet, Cross Stitch, Card Making, Computer Skills, Maths Tuition, Dog Walking, Companionship, Gardening and Basic D.I.Y., Form Filling, WiFi Access, CV Writing, Facility for Job Searches and help with Applications. 

The DWP recommend jobseekers to join Time Banks in The Daily Jobseeker notifications.
