Creating a fairer society by valuing everyone’s contribution!

The scheme supports the Council’s ambitions for safer and healthier communities by prioritizing our most vulnerable residents. If we can get it right with the most vulnerable, we can get it right for everyone. By building their skills and confidence through volunteering, the programme not only helps individuals, but brings more back to local communities

When I found out about Time Credits, I thought it was a really amazing idea - especially for people in my position. And now we’ve had the opportunity to earn and spend some – well, wow…the experience of going to just one of those attractions is worth a whole year of happiness. What today means to me is just indescribable. I wouldn’t have been able to do anything like this without Time Credits.

People who volunteer with us feel extremely valued, they have started to develop their own projects and commit even more time than ever before

Our business vision is to get people active. With Time Credits, we get new people into the building that wouldn’t come if it weren’t for them. We can then focus on retention as Time Credits help with recruitment. This helps us to compete with budget gyms.
