UK Community Cinema Volunteers for The Guardian Feature

We would like to hear from people who are involved in a UK volunteer-run film society On any given night, film societies up and down the country screen everything from new releases to arthouse and foreign language films at community cinemas. Some are shown in village halls, others may be in a room above a pub. In the UK alone, there are more than 1,600 community cinema screens, and October 2025 marks the [100th anniversary of the launch of the UK’s first film society](https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2025/mar/21/the-fringe-benefits-of-britains-much-loved-community-cinemas).
