Base Groups
Over the weekend, attenders are allocated a Base Group of about 6 people (though this can vary depending on the overall number of participants in a weekend), in which they discuss issues and carry out the jobs allocated by the jobs rota. Base Groups allow people to associate on a smaller, more manageable scale and make discussions easier and fairer.

Famous quotes containing the words base and/or groups:
“Report of fashions in proud Italy,
Whose manners still our tardy-apish nation
Limps after in base imitation.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Women over fifty already form one of the largest groups in the population structure of the western world. As long as they like themselves, they will not be an oppressed minority. In order to like themselves they must reject trivialization by others of who and what they are. A grown woman should not have to masquerade as a girl in order to remain in the land of the living.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
