dronfield EYE Time on your hands? Share it! 44 T IME really does fly – are you making the most of it? Derbyshire Timeswap is preparing to celebrate its first anniversary, encouraging people to swap their skills and hobbies in exchange for time. For every hour you give, you get one in return. You could help someone with their garden, paint a fence, walk a dog, drive someone to an appointment, or promote Time Swap at an event. In return, you could ask for help learning a musical instrument, using the internet, or learning to crochet, or with some basic DIY – the list of swaps is endless! Natalie Evans, development officer for NE Derbyshire and Bolsover, said: “In 2023 we signed up 76 individual members, 34 organisational members and had 1,653 hours of swaps. In fact the first year has gone so quickly! “The variety of swaps has been amazing and its been great to see members helping each other. We are always looking for more members as this will generate more swaps on offer.” Individuals over the age of 18 and organisations can join. Everybody in the swap has to be a member and all swaps are covered by insurance, provided the correct procedure has been followed. You only do swaps you want to do, when you want to do them, so there is no pressure. Swaps can be one-to-one, or groups (such as knit and natter) and community swaps (such as litterpicking). It’s a great way of bringing people and the community together. To say ‘thank you’ to members, first year celebrations will be held in May but these are also open to anyone who wants to find out more information or become involved : The events will be held at Bolsover Adult Education Centre on 15th May, 11am -2pm; and The Barn, Dronfield, on Friday, 3rd May, 10am-noon. If you would like to get involved in Time Swap or for further information contact Natalie: nataliee@sdcvs.org.uk or 07458 304316, derbyshiretimeswap.org.uk
