Bringing communities together

One of the defining characteristics of our nation is that within difficult times, community spirit often rises from adversity. As part of my job, I am lucky enough to be humbled by the many stories of individuals and groups supporting their communities, even after experiencing hardship and making a real difference.

We are here to enable diverse individuals and groups to build capability and capacity, aiming to leave a set of organisations that can sustain themselves. We do this with and for communities, facilitated by crucial partnerships with many other organisations. This is our legacy.

It is Tempo Time Credits that provide the glue which binds partnerships and sustains them into the future. Tempo Time Credits have a long history. We have brought them into the present by providing a digital solution, while also catering for those digitally excluded.

We are determined to build on the massive surge in people who want to volunteer, working with others to capitalise on this and also seeking to widen the spectrum, providing opportunities for anyone in any situation to volunteer.
