Get Involved

Volunteers are the lifeblood of the centre. From helping out in the Cafe Bar to decorating, stewarding, leafleting – there are so many ways to help! We exist because of ordinary people doing extraordinary things and volunteering to support the centre.

Our independent charity exists because of the support it receives from its community. Over 40 years our independent charity has provided a crucial space for people to come together to take part in community life and culture in all of its diversity.

You can support our work with a single donation or by becoming a member. Membership is the best way to support our work year round and help people to be in the driving seat of their community events and cultural experiences. We are a membership organisation and all members help to shape our future and receive voting rights at our annual celebration and AGM.

As well as volunteers we have a small staff team who help carry out the centre’s day-to-day functionality and dream about it’s future.
