@Survival_Is_Insufficient there are independent autonomous 'social centrels' such as the #SumacCentre" in the #ForestFields neighbourhood in #Nottingham. Run by volunteers with no dependence on statutory funding, they often have cheap meeting space, community meals, fundraising gigs and resources for campaign groups.

Look for Social Centres Network and Climate Emergency Centres network.

We're dipping into the archives from #RainbowCentre (1984-2000), now continuing as the #SumacCentre, in the #ForestFields area of #Nottingham

The #RainbowArchive covers everything from a 1963 issue of The Vegan, the Journal of the #VeganSociety, with an article about their #vegan library (#synchronicity), to #Outrage, the @animalaid Newsletter, featuring #Veggies40Years Anniversary and the #AnimalAid Fairs, with #FoodByVeggies since the late '80s, and now part of #Vegfest.
