Own it together
Become part of Envirolution
Envirolution is built around participation, community and collective action. Membership is a way to become part of the co-operative behind our work — while supporter contributions help keep community climate action, education and creative projects moving.
Time and ideas matter too. Explore volunteering, or see how to take part.
Two ways to get involvedJoin the co-operative.
Join the co-operative.
Help sustain the work.
These are different choices. A supporter contribution does not automatically make you a co-operative member, and membership is not a recurring supporter subscription.
Support Envirolution
From £5 recurring support
Choose a monthly or yearly contribution to help support community activity, educational resources and the work behind them.
Support our workCommunity benefit, shared participation
A co-operative built around people.
Envirolution describes itself as a registered Community Benefit Society and environmental co-operative based in Manchester.
That community focus is visible in the way the work happens: people organising a free festival, sharing a skill, developing a learning resource or bringing their experience into a climate conversation.
It is not just about an organisation delivering something to an audience. People taking part help create the activities and connections themselves.
- Community
- People coming together around environmental action, with room for different experiences and ideas.
- Participation
- Contributing to discussions and activities through the spaces Envirolution provides, with approved access where needed.
- Collective action
- Knowledge, time, creativity and practical effort turning shared ideas into something people can take part in.
- Local impact
- Manchester roots, neighbourhood connections and learning shared through festivals, assemblies and environmental resources.
What £1 meansOne pound.
One pound.
A place in the co-operative.
Envirolution’s published membership offer is a one-off £1 co-operative share. It is a route into membership, not one of the monthly or yearly supporter plans.
The share and the ongoing work are different things. Membership connects you with the organisation; volunteering brings time and skills; supporter contributions provide financial support. You can explore the routes that fit you.
Payment, formal membership and portal access are separate steps. Do not assume that paying £1 gives immediate access to an account or makes you eligible for every decision.

Membership terms information · Privacy · Legal information
Register interest or ask a question insteadHow to take part
Membership is more than a checkout.
A co-operative needs conversations and practical contributions as well as membership records. The Volunteer Portal brings approved members and volunteers into a shared online space.
Share ideas
Read community updates, contribute to open discussions and submit an update for review. Published content depends on what participants and organisers have shared.
Explore proposals
Approved participants can read published co-op proposals. The portal restricts voting to approved member roles while a vote is open; formal eligibility must be confirmed with the team.
Give time & skills
Explore opportunities when organisers publish them, sign up where appropriate and talk about the practical help you can offer.
Find your way to volunteerBuild connections
Use the shared discussions and community updates to hear what others are working on, exchange ideas and contribute to Envirolution’s activities.
How joining works
From a first step to taking part.
Check the membership arrangements first. Payment does not create or approve your portal account.
Join
Read the membership information, ask for the rules and use the £1 membership checkout when you are ready. You can register interest without paying.
Confirm
Check your Stripe payment confirmation. Ask Envirolution to confirm your membership and next steps; a payment receipt alone does not establish access or voting eligibility.
Connect
Request a portal account if you need one. An administrator reviews requests before activation. Existing users can log in; membership permissions are checked separately.
Participate
Explore published opportunities and discussions, contribute ideas and ask which co-operative processes are open to you.
Want to help fund the work?
Support Envirolution.
Regular supporters help sustain free climate education, community projects and the games, alongside the work of rebuilding volunteer capacity.
You can choose support independently of the £1 membership share. There are no membership rights attached to these supporter tiers. Choose a billing period you are comfortable with and check it again in Stripe before paying.
Seed Supporter
£5
A simple way to regularly support Envirolution’s community work and basic running costs.
Community Supporter
£10
Help strengthen community activity, outreach and educational resources.
Climate Supporter
£20
Provide greater ongoing support for Envirolution’s environmental and educational work.
Clear choices, before payment
The published options are £5, £10 or £20 each month, or £5, £10 or £20 each year. Yearly is a separate recurring choice, not twelve monthly payments combined. Review the total, currency and billing interval in Stripe; if they differ from your choice, stop and contact us.
Email is for payment correspondence. This page does not ask for marketing consent, publish your identity or create a public profile. Read how payment information is handled.
A different amount, or an existing subscription?
Talk to the team about another level of support. There is no custom-amount checkout on this page.
To ask about changing or cancelling an existing contribution, use the current contact details. Do not start another subscription to change your existing one. Please do not send card details.
What your support makes possible
Keep room for learning, making and meeting.
Envirolution’s work connects practical environmental ideas with community participation. Support helps sustain that work, rather than buying a fixed benefit or a guaranteed outcome.
These are areas documented on the site, not a promise that a particular payment is reserved for one activity. No percentage allocation or cost-per-person claim is made.
Free environmental learning
Games about forests, energy, recycling, homes and ecosystems give people a way to try ideas and ask questions. They can be explored independently or used in learning activities.
Explore the climate gamesCommunity events & workshops
The festival story combines music, hands-on activities and environmental conversations. Current plans focus on rebuilding capacity; new festival dates are not confirmed here.
Check event information and plansThe people behind the work
Planning, communications, administration and volunteer coordination help turn shared ideas into activities. Those behind-the-scenes contributions need attention too.

Community assembly material, digital learning tools and project records keep local experience available for others to explore and learn from.

Choose a supporter optionBuilt by community since 2010
A story made by people taking part.
From free festivals at Platt Fields Park to climate education and community assemblies, Envirolution’s history is full of people creating something together.
The archive records the 2020 impact research, Manchester’s 2021 community climate assembly and growing and community projects. Today’s games and participation tools offer more ways into environmental learning.
Those historical records explain where the work comes from; they are not a claim about current event dates or new impact totals.
Membership & support questions
A little more clarity.
If a question concerns your membership, payment or access, ask the team. Do not send passwords or card details.
What is the £1 membership offer?
The public offer is a one-off £1 co-operative membership share, separate from recurring financial support. It is not described as a monthly membership fee. The society’s full rules should be checked before joining.
Who is eligible, and what rights does membership give?
The available public legal information does not set out the detailed admission, voting, responsibility, withdrawal or refund rules. Request the governing rules and membership terms. We do not treat the portal’s technical permissions as a substitute for those rules.
Can I support Envirolution without becoming a member?
Yes. The supporter plans are separate from the £1 membership option. You can also choose financial support alongside membership, but a supporter payment does not itself grant membership.
How do members participate?
The portal provides community updates, discussions, opportunity sign-ups and co-op proposals for approved accounts. Voting on portal proposals is restricted to approved member roles while voting is open. Ask the team which formal membership arrangements apply. Volunteering and public Digital Assembly participation are distinct routes.
What happens after I pay for membership?
Check the Stripe confirmation and ask Envirolution to confirm your membership and next steps. If you need portal access, request an account separately; an administrator reviews requests. Payment alone does not automatically activate an account.
How do monthly and yearly supporter options differ?
Choose the recurring interval on your supporter card. The published choices are £5, £10 or £20 per month, or the same amounts per year. The selected amount and period appear above the button. Check the actual billing details in Stripe before confirming; contact the team if they differ.
How do I change or cancel a supporter contribution?
Contact Envirolution about your existing contribution, using the email associated with it where possible. This page does not provide a verified self-service cancellation link or specify notice and refund terms. Ask the team to confirm those arrangements; starting a new checkout does not cancel an existing subscription.
What if checkout fails, or I am unsure whether I paid?
A return to this page is not evidence of successful payment. Check your Stripe confirmation and contact the team if the outcome is unclear before attempting another payment. Opening checkout alone does not confirm membership or support.
Will this sign me up to marketing or make a public profile?
This page collects only an optional receipt email before Stripe Checkout. It does not request marketing consent, create a public profile or display supporter names. The privacy policy explains payment records and operational communications.
