Thanks for helping grow co-operatives!

A huge thank you to the 60,000 Co-operative members and Oxfam supporters who supported our campaign to help Grow Co-operatives!

Thank you!

Over the last year, we’ve been asking you to support our Grow Co-operatives campaign, calling on the UK Government to unlock greater support for smallholder farmers and co-operatives to feed the world fairly and sustainably.

In total, over 60,000 Co-operative members and Oxfam supporters supported the ask and we travelled to 10 Downing Street to pass on the message.

Here's a video from the hand-in:

Petition hand-in

We delivered the petition a month ahead of the G8 Summit, which we believe provides a crucial opportunity for governments to recognise the contribution that smallholder farmers and co-operatives make towards food security and poverty reduction.
