Co-ordinator wanted for exciting new timebanking initiative in Newcastle
Timebanking UK and Newcastle-based organisations have received funding to set up a time bank in the Arthur's Hill and Wingrove areas of the City.

Timebanking is a mechanism that enables people in communities to help one another using time, not money, as the currency. It strengthens and underpins statutory services by creating local, mutual, practical and social support networks. For every hour a time bank member spends helping someone, they earn an hour's credit. You might earn an hour by helping someone with their shopping, for example. You can spend your credit on skills offered by other time bank members– maybe you want to learn IT skills or get some help in your garden. Within timebanking, everyone's hour is equal, regardless of age, ability, education, employment status or income.

The Newcastle Time Bank is looking for an enthusiastic and flexible person to lead the development of the time bank with both individuals, and organisations, within these areas, promoting the improved health and wellbeing through local membership for all local people.

The role of the Newcastle Time Bank Co-ordinator is to set up, promote and manage the day to day running of the Time Bank project, in Arthur's Hill and Wingrove, by recruiting and training members, linking them up, and initiating exchanges to involve participants in both physical, and mental, health and wellbeing timebanking activities to achieve our objectives for themselves, their loved ones and their community.

The ideal candidate will be passionate about community action and volunteering and have good experience of organising and promoting group activities. Job share considered.

A full job description and person specification is set out below. For more information about timebanking please visit

You will be trained, supported and employed by Timebanking UK for a 12 month period and locally supported by community-based partners.

Please submit a covering letter, stating why you are suitable for this role, with your CV, including two formal references, who can be contacted only if you are successful. Apply by email to by Monday 20th October 2025.

Interviews will take place in the week commencing 27th October 2025.

If you have any questions, please either email or call John Biesse at Timebanking UK on or
