If you don't live near a cinema (or even if you do!), a community cinema can be a wonderful way to bring people together in your local area.

From what to screen, to planning themed nights, special snacks, quizzes and more, there can be a whole lot of fun involved in making it happen. 

But, inevitably, it also takes a lot of work to ensure you do things correctly (licensing), well (the right equipment), and that you're taking care of the people who help run it and who attend your events (policies and procedures).
