started as a tiny back garden operation in 2008. Since then it has grown into one of Bristol’s best known, successful and well supported social enterprises. We are formed as a Community Interest Company with a Co-operative structure, governed by our members (both volunteers and staff).
Our overarching governance is set within (primary rules), also known as our Articles of Association. This is a formal legal document that defines how we operate as a Members Co-op and as a Community Interest Company.
This Co-op handbook (secondary rules) is a guiding document that expands on our constitution and gives more details on how we operate as a co-operative. It covers our purpose and values, the different decision-making bodies, and our decision-making processes and practices.
