Community Members
Community Members are those who ultimately hold the responsibility for the running of the Community rather than the volunteers who have a more supporting role. The Community Members invite others to come and share their lives and their home for however long is needed, though we recommend that under 25's use The Pilsdon Communities as a stepping stone and are expected only to stay for a year.
Community Members take part in all aspects of Pilsdon life; from cooking and cleaning and other daily chores to leading services and looking after the animals. Each Member is expected to take an area or areas of responsibility to ensure the smooth running of the Community from day to day.
Life in Pilsdon is never dull - each day is different and unique. Despite the lack of a 9 til 5 structure the meals and services offer a framework from which we build and live. One Member, when asked what she does, answers "Something else" meaning that when you set out to do something you always find yourself doing something else!
Pilsdon at Malling reflects all aspects of life and society, across ages, beliefs, cultures and races. We welcome all to join us however briefly.
Currently The Pilsdon at Malling Community has a full complement of Community Members but if you do feel that this life is you do continue to contact us and do visit us to test your vocation for the future.
