The Aston Project was set up in Cheltenham in 2011 in memory of Neighbourhood Officer PC Lynn Aston.
The project builds upon the work for reward ethos and aims to work with young people (aged 9-17) by identifying their interests and engaging them in constructive activity through which they build credits towards a reward activity through timebanking.
The credit scoring activities fall broadly into four categories; community based, discipline based, character/team building or vocational. All our reward activities / experiences have a cost in time credits, so young people can choose one to work towards and learn that hard work = reward.
