The new WORKERS.coop federation will soon be up and running. - We registered as a Co-op Society with the Financial Conduct Authority on October 28th. We expect to be bringing new members on board by the end of the year.
- We have already run two organising events in Glasgow and Manchester. There are two more in Bristol and London on 23rd and 28th November. If you can't make these we also have fortnightly webinars. Find out how to participate.
- We signed a historic collaboration agreement with Co-operatives UK. Any worker co-op joining WORKERS.coop will get 50% discount off the Co-operatives UK standard membership fee. Make sure you let them know when you renew! It’s a good deal.
- Our project co-ordinator John Atherton is working flat out with 30+ volunteers, across six working groups to have as much as possible in place for the launch.
- Our founder members are working on the business plan and strategic priorities. We’re using the fortnightly webinars, events, intensive researcher-led interviews and surveys to understand the priorities and commitment from worker co-operators.
But we need your direct input now, so we’re asking you to participate in a short survey, and then, Forward this email to your worker co-op colleagues, so we can get their views as well. It’ll take no more than about 10 minutes of your time. Thank you |
