We’re excited to be part of the Citizen Coin scheme—a fantastic initiative that recognises the contributions of local volunteers by offering rewards that can be redeemed at participating businesses across the Wakefield District.

If you’ve ever thought about volunteering but weren’t sure where to start, The Community Give Box is the perfect place to begin. By offering just a few hours of your time, you can make a real impact in the local community, and thanks to Citizen Coin, you’ll also receive digital tokens that can be spent at a variety of local shops, cafés, and entertainment venues.

How Does Citizen Coin Work?

Citizen Coin is designed to reward those who actively contribute to the community. You earn digital tokens when you volunteer and support good causes, which can then be exchanged for discounts, deals, or services with local businesses. It’s a brilliant way to encourage more people to give back while also supporting Wakefield’s economy.
