what's in a name?
The Co-operative explained
Everyone has heard of The Co-operative but not everybody knows what The Co-operative is all about. We're more than just a shop, we are a multi-million pound business owned and controlled by our members, and interested in you and the communities we serve.
What’s in a Name? – The Co-operative Explained
This is an informative, fun event and is ideal for members who want to understand a little more about us and get a bit more involved in what we do. This event explains:
- Our part in the The Co-operative Movement and our shared social history
- Our campaigning work on such issues as Climate change and Fairtrade and what we do to help the communities in which we trade
- What our businesses are and how they do business
- What membership means and how you can best benefit from being a member of The Co-operative
- How we work to achieve our values and principles
It’s not just our look that’s different – it’s our outlook. That’s our opinion and we’re sure you will agree once you know what The Co-operative is all about.
