The society has just over 150 members, and is run by a management committee elected by its members. The committee meets once a month to deal with the day-to-day running of the site and to resolve any problems. The society's Annual General Meeting takes place once a year to elect officers and committee, to approve the accounts for the previous year and to discuss any matters of concern.

The first of a series of social events took place in 2017, and the two events held that year were an immediate success. The summer event took the form of a buffet meal, and the autumn event included a halloween-themed barbecue with a carved pumpkin competition for younger members. The social event programme restarted in 2022, after breaks while the community hut was being rebuilt and due to Covid-19 restrictions. The summer and autumn events of 2022 again included an excellent barbecue meal with drinks and a raffle.
