Community barter?

Declan from Christchurch has this question:
“Hi there. I keep hearing about how barter is a great way of doing things. I’ve tried unsuccessfully to barter on facebook barter groups. Admittedly, they do seem to have very low memberships. How do other people go about bartering?”

    I looked at your website today and saw this question around bartering. Although it is not bartering as you are not meant to barter skills that are your main form of income. There is a movement called Time banking. There are Timebanks set up around the country – you might pay a small joining fee then list your skills, connect with others and request help on things and offer help to others in return. Everyone’s time is equal. For more info go to: http://timebanks.nz/timebanks
