Being a member of a company (and in future a member of a charity) will bring a certain responsibility, which some may find is not what they want. A company with 1,000 members will be hard to manage. However, a company with 100 members and 1,000 friends will be much easier to keep running. I believe most people would want to be a "friend" rather than a "member", and I mean "member" in the technical sense of "guarantor member".
