Helping Hands 

This circle within the IWA is intended to encourage members to afford "neighbourly" kindnesses among each other and so apart from the usefulness also aid members to get to know each other better. Several members have already helped each other out with childminding, pet-sitting, house-sitting, exchange of garden plants and produce, advice and transport just to name a few things. At present there are 26 members in the group. They each have a list of members interested and their "abilities" and "general requests" so that they can contact spontaneously and directly. If there is anyone else who would like to join us (or if anyone in the circle has mislaid the list with the members´mail addresses and offers/ general requests ) please mail me: margit.zus@global.co.at
