What is Common Ground Bray?
We are a co-operative, members-based community group, located in Bray, County Wicklow. We are dedicated to promoting a co-operative, mindful and ecological lifestyle as an alternative to the consumer-fueled ethos that dictates much of the modern world.
We want to create a network of people that will have a positive impact on the community of Bray and it’s environs and that reflects the diverse and multi-cultural nature of contemporary Ireland. We want to support our members in coming together in meaningful and energizing ways that enhance our experience of being a community.
We aim to provide a network and a space to
- Help people support each other in sharing their skills and talents.
- Source healthy and sustainable food.
- Encourage environmentally friendly approaches to contemporary living.
- Support a mindful, ethical and caring community.
We are unaffiliated and self funded and value the independence that that gives us.
Membership is Open to All.

The Committee – Common Ground Organisation
Common Ground consists of a growing number of members. There are no specific requirements for membership and your interaction can range from simply availing of the information we share on our various networks to getting stuck in and organizing your own initiatives, workshops and events.
The organization of our activities are regulated through our committee which meets once a week and makes sure that Common Ground business is attended to. The committee is a non-hierarchical group of between 6 and 8 people and is drawn from the over-all membership. It helps to organize and facilitate various Common Ground projects and activities.
The committee can be contacted via commongroundbray@gmail.com
