What Are We?
TeamUpHere is an online forum through which people can swap and share their skills with one another. The site is all about getting things done by swapping and sharing our skills with each other, helping each other out and doing each other a favour. These are the sort of things that happen in all good communities and we are building a fantastic online community where they can happen as well.
What Do We Believe In?
We believe in strong community values of helping each other and sharing what each of us have for the good of others as well as ourselves. We believe that we can can all get a great sense of achievement, satisfaction and well-being from swapping and sharing our skills with one another. We believe that Everyone Has Something To Offer and so everyone can benefit from swapping their skills - whether you be a skilled tradesman or professional or just an enthusiastic hobbyist or someone with some spare time to give, all of our skills are valuable to someone at sometime. We also believe that we should help those in greater need than ourselves and that is why we will donate 90% of the revenue that this site makes to charity.
What Charities Do We Support?
We believe that everyone can benefit from TeamUpHere, so we want to support charities that help a wide section of the community. If you would like to view the charities we are currently supporting, click HERE.
Why TeamUpHere?
Teaming Up is all about people coming together and getting things done together, helping each other out, becoming a partnership or combining strengths. We thought that Team-Up was a great phrase that stated what we want you to be able to do. We also want you to swap your skills on out site - so TeamUpHere seemed to be an apt and catchy slogan!
Where Are We?
The vast majority of our members are from all across the UK. But, if your from overseas and want to get involved, please let us know - we're constantly developing the site and we're always looking for new ideas.
Who Are We?
Simple, TeamUpHere.com is EVERYONE who participates in the website - without the members, the site cannot work! We hope you will join us and spread the word of what we're trying to do - the more people we have using the site, the more we will all benefit.
How Did We Start?
We are an Exeter couple (Karen and Stewart Gordon) and we were looking to team up with someone who could help them develop a new web-based card game that Karen had designed. We didn't really know how to find someone, so turned to the Internet for help. It was while conducting seemingly endless searches that we had another idea! What if there was a website where you could simply put in the details of what you had to offer (Karen's web-based card game) and the details of what you were looking for (a web game developer and an investor). So was born the idea TeamUpHere.com.
