This is the story of Include Me 2 Club (IM2C) a movement born from a simple realisation in 2009: the world wasn’t
built for everyone, so we decided we would build something better.
The Spark: From One Group to a Movement - It started in Barrhead with a single social group and a
big ambition. While others saw “service users,” we saw architects of their own future. We didn’t want to deliver
programmes to people; we wanted to build a future with them.
Today, that spark has grown into an award-winning force for change, connecting over 2,000 people every year. We don’t
just fill gaps in communities; we create entirely new spaces where they didn’t exist before.
The Why: Beyond the Status Quo - We are a charity/social enterprise that thinks like a startup and
acts with the heart of a neighbour. We are proud recipients of the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, but our
real recognition is found in the steam of a busy Social Blend café, the grit of our bike hubs, and the energy of
our festivals and community spaces.
We don’t do “corporate stuff.” We do relational. We believe a young member deserves the same warmth and respect as a
corporate sponsor. We believe the best ideas can come from anywhere. And if you have a bold idea, you should
have the autonomy to run with it and the support to make it happen.
Your Chapter Begins - Right now, IM2C stands at a threshold. We are moving from a local success
story to a nationally recognised innovator in inclusion and community building. This isn’t a place where you
come to maintain a legacy; it’s where you come to build one.
We are launching new sites, expanding our footprint, and looking for people who are tired of establishment giants and
their red tape. We offer a blank canvas and the startup energy of an organisation that knows its best days are
still ahead.
At IM2C we muck in. We show up for each other, and we take ownership of our collective success. We are looking for
the bold, the restless, and the visionary to help ensure that everyone, regardless of age or ability, can live a
Life Without Limits.
This is where ideas happen.
This is where you belong.
