Two Hour Club

What would you love to do for two hours a month that would support your wellbeing? Our Two Hour Club is supporting people to do something they love alongside other people with the same interest. We are currently developing the Two Hour Club as part of community work with Ashton Circle in Ashton in Makerfield.

There are Five Ways that can improve your wellbeing. Two of these are ‘giving’ and ‘connecting’. We want to rethink volunteering as a way of investing in your own wellbeing through using two hours a month to connect and contribute.

This is the Two Hour Club – where we support people to find a great way to invest two hours that makes a positive impact on your wellbeing and in your local community. This could be sharing a hobby or expertise, or developing new skills.
We can help you find the best role for you, to use your two hours.
