The Co-operative Group – General Information for joining

The Co-operative Group is a unique business democratically run by members to meet their common needs and aspirations. In turn, the strength and commitment of our membership is vital in helping us achieve our goals. So instead of blindly chasing profits like businesses controlled by shareholders, we are able to steer our business in a more responsible direction.

A co-operative is not about making profits for shareholders – it is a group of people acting together to meet the common needs and aspirations of its members, sharing ownership, making decisions democratically and creating value for customers.

Our members are our owners
Each of our members has an equal right to a say in how the business is run and how we achieve our social goals.
As a member you can vote to elect other members who have put themselves forward to represent you and your community on your area committee. You can also put yourself forward to represent members in your area.

Occasionally we invite members to get involved in our decision-making processes, such as having your say on community matters, or voting on our Ethical Policies which dictate the way we operate our ethical trading.

Anyone can become a member as long as they believe in what we stand for. All you have to do is invest £1 which we will collect from your first share of the profits. Being a member brings with it a host of benefits:

Your share of the profits
Because you are a member, you are rewarded with a share of our profits. The amount you receive is based on the amount we have made in profits that year, and the amount you spend with our businesses – so the more you spend, the more your share will be.

Exclusive Member Offers
Take advantage of exclusive special offers with all of our businesses throughout the year, just for members.

Member Communities
We bring together regional and national networks of members, so as well as playing a more active role within your region's democratic network, there are also plenty of opportunities for you to make a real difference to your community. Find out more about member communities and getting involved.
