ECHO IS FOR ANYONE AND EVERYONE
Businesses
Echo helps you increase your capacity as and when you need to, whether it’s admin staff and desk space, or building an online presence.

Echo helps you get more out of your community, from childcare and help around the home, to training opportunities and cinema tickets. It’s also a great way to learn new skills, start a project or launch a business.

Whether you’re looking to learn a new skill, launch a project, or grow your business, the Echo marketplace offers a wealth of skills and services to suit our members’ diverse needs.
Unlock your untapped resources and skills, add your listings to the marketplace, browse offers and events, or see how you could help by responding to requests from other Echo members.
Exchange Echoes
It’s simple.
1 hour = 1 echo
At Echo, the currency we use is time, not money. So for every hour you give, you’ll earn one Echo.
You can build up your balance and spend your Echoes on anything on offer on the marketplace. If you’ve got more Echoes than you need, you can donate them to any other member, or if you need a top up you can earn them quickly by inviting your friends to join. Simple.
