Here are a few essential steps to help you get started:

1. Gather a group of people with a shared goal or identity
2. Define your aims – for example, cultural celebration, legal help, youth work
3. Agree on a structure – legal form, membership, rules and roles, how decisions are made
4. Register if needed – for funding, legal protection, or growth 
5. Find support – local councils and charities often help with setup and funding
