about the co-operative party

Putting people before profit

The co-operative and mutual concepts are based on the principle that individual and collective well-being is only sustainable by mutual dependence. The Co-operative Movement is based on the values and principles of self help, social responsibility and individual empowerment.

Created in 1917 by the UK Co-operative Movement, The Co-operative Party is its political arm. Together with its Parliamentary Group the Party works to raise awareness on the benefits of the co-operative and mutual models, and to influence Government into more co-operative action.
