How often have you heard people say “I’d like to do something but I don’t know how”?
At the Sumac Centre, it could hardly be easier to get involved and make a positive change. The Sumac Centre is all about co-operating and sharing our knowledge and skills.
The Sumac Centre is run by volunteers, and so relies on the work of its users and members to keep itself going. There are no bosses and no-one gets paid for the work they do. Anyone is welcome to come and get involved.
There are separate collectives that help run other areas of the Sumac, including the cafe, Forest Field’s Social Club, Veggies Campaign Catering, the garden, library etc.
The day-to-day business of running the Sumac, including co-ordinating the above groups, is discussed and decided at open general meetings
The Sumac uses a consensus based decision making model, which aims to get the full consent of everyone involved before a proposal is accepted or decision made.
