At the core of our work is the principle of exchange, reciprocity and involvement. Our projects help to enhance wellbeing, promote confidence and self-esteem, build skills and capacity and support people in making positive life changes.

Our programme of work is varied and generally includes a range of community-based groups, courses, activities & events, longer term projects such as our lunch club, gardening team, food co-op and ‘Borrow it’ library of things and one-to-one help and support on a more traditional timebanking basis.
