A special currency called Hureai Kippu (literally “Caring Relationship Tickets”) has been created by a group of 300 non-profit organizations.

 Future of Money, 30/04/05, A Longterm Project towards Communal living
Complementary currencies like the japanese caring relationship tickets, Hureai Kippu which have different properties can be better than convential money on fostering care and mutual cooperation.
They could be geared towards cooperation and could tackle issues such as care for elderly or babysitting, token schemes like this have existed in communities for a long time, but the example of Hureai Kuppi demonstrates that the national spreading (or grouping) of theese currencies could allow widescale cooperation.
Although this is nothing to do with the island i do believe that i would strongly improve the standard of life for capatialist countries and shoud be strongly encouraged.

There is no paper money to carry around and no awkward, time-consuming double currency transactions to deal with as in the previous example.
Transactions are also eased by the fact that Hureai Kippu are a kind of special purpose money that can only be used to buy one thing, in contrast to Hours which can be used to buy many.
Furthermore, Leitaer notes that the elderly who take part in the system actually prefer the healthcare provided by people paid in Hureai Kippu over those paid with the national Yen because they experience a higher quality of care in their relationships with these caregivers (Douthwaite 2000).

 Beginning Statement
My intention is to renew old pathways within the present scheme of things, and hopefully create new ones and enable alternative methods.
My intention is to use as many of the present alternative currencies/systems in place today, possibly introduce other systems such as the Japanese "Hureai Kippu" to the UK or at least canvas for it to occur and encourage the addition of any new ideas which enhance the concept of "Sustainable abundance".
This will involve building a network, beginning with our local LETScheme and including those with whom I make barter agreements.
