Penarth Music Co-operative

Penarth Music Cooperative has been founded by a group of local people who value Penarth’s amazing musical heritage, and want to build an even better place for future musicians and music lovers and people who have a trade connection with music.

The Coop is in its early days, but we’ve got dreams that you could add to or help to make come true. Things like...

• Helping to make local music events and festivals as brilliant as possible
• Providing training opportunities for young musicians and technicians
• Improving access to rehearsal and recording spaces
• Helping people to promote and sell their music or related skills on-line
• Helping people to find out what’s happening on the local music and related trades scene
• Having lots of fun and making Penarth a centre of music-inspired happiness

As the name suggests, the Coop is working in accordance with internationally agreed Cooperative principles. What are they? Flip this over to find out in detail. But basically, we are wanting to work in ways which mean:

• Every member gets a say in decisions
• The motive is not about making profits for the few, but benefits for the many
• Any good we do has got a real chance of being for the long-term
