Braziers is home to about twenty people most of whom work part-time within Braziers. Some also work outside or are retired. There are also several younger residents, one at college and several ‘unschooled’ (home educated) youngsters. Ages range from 2 to 90.

Some of the residents live in rooms in the main building, alongside volunteers from overseas who spend up to three months here working for their keep and participating in the life of the community. At any one time, there are likely to be between two and six such volunteers.

Household, Kitchen, Office, Estate and other areas of work each have longer-term residents as main organizer, with support and input from others according to need and enthusiasm. At a meeting at 9am each day, much of the day’s work is allocated: often cooking, cleaning and gardening dominate, with maintenance and office tasks also on the agenda.
