Timebank: ‘We Love Our Planet’

North Paddington Timebank successfully participated to another fantastic community event. ‘We Love Our Planet’, celebrating diversity in North Westminster. Last Saturday 24th July, the Queens Park primary school courtyard was filled with many stalls offering useful information about; recycling, energy efficiency, low carbon zone and health promotion. Children had a fun time on the bouncy castle along with arts and crafts activities. Dr Bike gave workshops on bicycle maintenance. Everybody enjoyed pedalling to power the smoothie bike for a tasty and healthy fruit shake.

Timebank is a community engagement programme in the North Paddington area, enabling local residents to exchange time and skills. During the lively event people came to the Timebank stall to discover they can help each other within the neighbourhood. Current Timebanking activities include; gardening, guitar workshop, language practice, knitting, walking/fitness.
Also Timebank runs a second hand stall at Maida Hill Market every Tuesday 12 till 3pm. Come and join other Timebank members and get rid of stuff cluttering your home.
