Proud to be inclusive
We were born out of the co-operative movement 150 years ago, and it’s these co-operative values that have always driven us to make society better for everyone, regardless of sexuality, race, gender or disability. It's a vision of equality that we share with our customers and colleagues.We have always had a passion for inclusivity in our local communities, where everyone has a place; from small businesses to the people that live there. And we’re incredibly proud to have sponsored the Manchester Pride Festival for 7 years running.
