Co-operative Growth Strategy launched: Join our webinar to learn more
News item
On the same day (29 January) that the Chancellor set out government’s plans for growth, Co-operatives UK has unveiled its Co-operative Growth Strategy, detailing how a partnership between the sector and government, can double the size of the UK’s co-operative economy. Join our webinar on Wednesday 12 February to hear about the strategy and how you can get involved.
The Co-operative Growth Strategy identifies eight key areas with high potential for co-operative expansion and impact, from community ownership to digital co-operation and social care. It also highlights the critical enablers - such as finance, business support, and education - needed to unlock growth. In doing so, we can address major societal challenges, like inclusive growth and net zero.
To help members and partners further understand the strategy, and how they can be involved, our Policy and Development Lead, James Wright, will present a summary and take questions at an online webinar, on Wednesday 12 February from 2pm to 3pm. This is a great opportunity to learn more about the strategy’s priorities and how co-operatives, policymakers, and partners can work together to unlock growth.

The Co-operative Growth Strategy was approved by Co-operatives UK's Board in December 2024, following extensive consultation with the apex body's members and partners over a period in excess of 12 months.
