Join usEight ways in

There is no single way to help.

Time, money, expertise, encouragement, or coming to our pilots. All of it counts.

Volunteer

Much of this depends on people giving us their time. Preparing the building, a shift behind the bar, baking bread, helping at an event, or lending professional expertise.

We do not expect anyone to volunteer forever. The goal is that everyone in the core team is properly paid.

Offer some time

Become a director

This does not work without people who care about the same things and bring different skills. We will take the time to get that team right.

Anyone interested would work with the project on a trial basis first, so everyone can see how they work together before anything is formalised.

We are especially interested in finance, governance, hospitality, community development, fundraising, HR, property, marketing and food.

Sponsor Volunteer Lead Pledge Eat

Make a pledge

A pledge is not sponsorship, and it is not money now.

It is a conditional commitment: if we form the organisation and reach the goals we set, you would support it. That might be:

  • A collaboration with another community company
  • Professional services
  • Equipment or materials
  • A financial contribution

5 people have already pledged

  • Pax
  • Philippa
  • Viv
  • Maxine
  • Samuel

This is not an investment. It offers no ownership, no shares, no financial return and no membership of anything. It is an indication that you would like to help, so we can count. Nothing is owed and no money moves. If the organisation is ever formed, we come back and ask you properly, and you are free to say no.

Make a pledge

Attend an event

We will be running events soon, with sliding-scale prices so the money is not what decides who comes.

Eat with us, bring someone you love, or buy the ticket to gift someone else.

Work with Deri

Everything helps, and nobody should feel pushed into giving money. Sharing this, filling in a survey, coming to an event or giving a little time is worth as much.
