Alice Quinn
Hairdresser - Streetgate
I am passionate about my community and making a difference. The Co-op is a lifeline to my local community not just for the products and services they offer but the money raised for local causes. Seeing what the Co-op has done for local causes makes me want to be involved with the National Members' Council so I can help towards bringing about change and support for future generations.

Mahalia Flasz (Colleague Council Member)
Team Leader - Newcastle-upon-Tyne
As a Co-op colleague whose also been part of Co-op Young Members’ Group, National Members’ Council and Co-op Foundation Trustee, I’ve been able to really understand our Co-op and place our values and principles at the heart of all we do. I see issues through the lens of a colleague and a young member, offering different perspectives and solutions and I’m passionate to share my views and represent other members to help our Co-op.

Kate Cairns

My personal values are completely aligned to those of the Co-op; I welcome the opportunity to work within such an organisation that contributes to society and local and global issues. I am a Chartered Civil Engineer, Chartered Environmentalist and freelance Sustainability Consultant and Speaker. I specialise in Sustainability, Safety, and Inclusivity. I am passionate about protecting our planet and ensuring fairness, inclusion and respect and bring experience from business, industry, academia, third sector and politics.
