Lend a Hand

I'm here before you even ask.

The hardest part of asking is asking. Lend a Hand flips it — you post what you can spare, and the person who needs it comes to you.

Earns Kindness Points
What people offer

Post what you have, not what you owe.

An hour on Thursday. A car boot going past the shops. A spare high chair. Put it up, set how long it stands, and let your village take you up on it.

  • Say what you can offer and when it is available.
  • Anyone nearby who needs it can claim it.
  • Every offer earns Kindness Points towards the Haven Puzzle.

The kinds of help that matter

Time

An hour of childcare, a school run, sitting with a newborn so someone can shower.

Transport

A lift to an appointment, or a shop run you were already doing.

Things

Clothes outgrown, a cot no longer needed, meals cooked in double.

Presence

Company on a hard day. Often the one that matters most.

Offering, in three screens

Post what you have spare and let your village come to you.

An hour is enough

Most of what a village needs is small and ordinary.
