We’ve now put the wheels in motion to work with Volunteer Centre Hackney to develop time banking in the borough.
Last week Matthew McStravick, Developer at Timber Wharf, spoke at the VCH AGM about ways to work together to find the right opportunities for people to get involved, not just with time banking, but with volunteering at large in Hackney.
Notwithstanding concerns regarding public services being ‘outsourced’ to volunteers, the general feeling was that we are in an exciting time, with fantastic opportunities to develop what we all do, working together to be greater than the sum of our parts.
Most invigorating.
