TimeTogether
Time Together was set up by TimeBank in 2002, in response to a government white paper that recommended the provision of mentoring schemes to help refugees integrate better in the UK.
TimeBank used its expertise in creating innovative and exciting volunteering campaigns to devise Time Together. The scheme aimed to complement the well-established services already provided by refugee organisations and community groups.
Time Together recruited and matched over 2,500 refugees with volunteer mentors. Time Together also achieved great success in promoting positive images of refugees in the media.
