Connecting the community and improving health and wellbeing – one hour at a time!
Woolmer Forest Timebank meets every first Thursday of the month at Bordon Community Centre 10am - 12pm
and every third Thursday at Mustangs House 7:30pm - 9:30pm
Why not drop in for a cuppa and talk about how we can help each other?
As a member of our timebank you don't have to be an expert. You just need to be willing to exchange your time and receive time from someone else!! It’s that simple.....
We believe that everyone has talents and abilities to share and timebanking is a great way for people to benefit and learn from one another. Timebanking links people to share their time and skills. Everyone’s time is equal: one hour of help earns one time credit to spend when you need it. We operate with an asset-based philosophy that everyone has something to give to help another regardless of age, ability or background.

Time To Bank Time - A Poem By Luke Lloyd
Every first Thursday we here gather
For coffee tea biscuits and chatter,
To build relations, maybe friendships
And craft clever copy fresh from pen tips,
That's the theme this week at least,
To contemplate and shatter that peace
Maybe next time we'll paint or build,
Such is the nature of this next door guild,
We work as a team, that's you and me
To strengthen the ties of community,
Relates experience and discuss how to
Return our burb to long held values,
We gathered souls, we must ambass
And educate this growing town mass,
But I'm constantly bugged by this frank notion,
How do I bank time if there's no banks open?
