# How to add or remove a member without a role from a circle?

Sometimes, members need to contribute to a circle without holding a specific role. Whether it's to join meetings, vote on proposals, or support ongoing work, participation shouldn't be blocked. That’s why Holaspirit lets you add members to a circle even if they don’t have a role in it.

# Who can add or remove a member without a role? 

Assigning rules depend on how your organization is configured:

* If no role is defined as in charge of assignation across the organization, all members of a circle can add and remove other members.
* If [a role is in charge of assignation](https://help.holaspirit.com/en/article/managing-assigned-and-elected-roles-14m32b9/) in the organization, only it can add members to the circle.

👉 All members added to a circle are [decision makers (core members)](https://help.holaspirit.com/en/article/what-is-a-core-member-or-decision-maker-of-a-circle-1iavpvl/) by default, apart from [Inactive members](https://help.holaspirit.com/en/article/what-are-inactive-members-zbj3zj/).

📌 **Note**: All members can be added as a member without a role no matter their status (Inactive, Admin, User).
