You can also pay for courses using Lancashire Time
Credits. Time Credits are a way of enabling local
people to make a difference in their communities and
to local public services.
If a person gives one hour of time to a participating
community organisation, they earn one time credit. That
credit can then be spent on a range of activities in the
local area, for example on a course, a museum visit, a
physiotherapy session or a show at the local theatre.
Time credits are similar in design to bank notes but
have no monetary value. Anyone can earn them, and
everyone’s time is always worth the same: an hour
equals an hour. They can be spent on a variety of
courses across Lancashire. Please note an additional
charge will be applied for courses which carry an
exam fee or material costs.
To find out more visit www.chorley.gov.uk and
search for ‘time credits’.
