Co-operative Fortnight

What's happening | Co-operative Fortnight Activities

 For 14 days co-operatives across the economy and up and down the country will be showing that there is an alternative.
Flagship events like Co-operatives 2010 will bring 500 people to Plymouth to showcase the co-operative alternative and the Fortnight will end with International Co-operatives Day, celebrating co-operation across the globe.
Why not do something for Co-operatives Fortnight and put your activity on the map. Join in, be inspired, be co-operative!
