Volunteering

Medway Change Makers volunteer programme has now come to an end and we would like to take this opportunity to say “thank you” to all the volunteers and hosting organisations who have taken part, and of course our wonderful funder, Spirit of 2012.

Spirit of 2012 is the London 2012 legacy organisation. It was founded with a £47million endowment from the National Lottery Community Fund in 2013 and will undertake a planned closure in 2026. Their research, learning and insights from over a decade of funding projects to inspire a social legacy is available at http://www.spiritof2012.org.uk

But it’s not the end! We’re delighted to announce that Tempo Time Credits will be picking up the baton and taking the journey forward!

Tempo Time Credits are a UK-based social enterprise that focuses on encouraging volunteering and community participation, they focus on celebrating and rewarding people for the amazing contributions they make to their communities. With their fresh perspective and proven approach, we’re confident they’ll carry forward the spirit of Medway Change Makers while creating new opportunities for growth, connection, and positive impact in and around Medway.

Time credits can be redeemed against lots of fantastic activities across the UK including, but not limited to, days out, live entertainment, cinema tickets, zoo visits, boat trips and much more.  They can even be gifted to friends and family!
