Co-op launches new initiative for members
GETTY
Co-op is launching ‘The Winners Share It All’ competition designed to help boost Co-op’s existing support of thousands of local causes across the UK.
The competition, which starts today aims to give Co-op member-owners a chance to win prizes for themselves and their communities.
The Co-op Local Community Fund will receive a share of a £500,000 boost to support projects that benefit Co-op member communities.
The winners will have the chance to get £500 worth of prizes for them, including money off shopping, and £5,000 for their selected cause.
Those who are non-members but want to still get involved can sign up for just £1 via the Co-op App.
To be entered into the prize draw, Co-op member-owners need to spend a minimum of £5 in store or online, scan their card and have selected a Local Community Fund cause.
Ten Co-op member-owners will win each month

Shoppers can enter as many times as they want across the period and each £5 shop will activate one entry into the competition.
Ten Co-op member-owners will win each month.
Co-op member-owners have the chance to directly benefit from exclusive perks, while also having a say in how Co-op runs the business.
In addition to delivering additional value through member prices, membership also includes personalised offers every week, gamification, and access to pre-sale tickets for artists at Co-op Live via the Co-op app.
The Co-op’s community partnerships and the Local Community Fund has donated over £107million to 36,000 causes since it began in 2016.
The Local Community Fund supports thousands of grassroots community projects and Co-op Members can choose which local cause they want to support.
The new ‘The Winners Share It All’ initiative will see Co-op Local Community Fund causes receive a share of a £500,000 boost to support projects that benefit Co-op member communities, providing vital support and services to those who need it most.
Kenyatte Nelson, chief membership and customer officer at Co-op, said: “Co-op membership is not a loyalty scheme but rather a different way of doing business, allowing us to provide value in ways than others can’t.
“We exist and are run for the benefit of our millions of member-owners.
“Our relentless focus on strengthening our financial position has enabled us to deliver increased value for our member-owners and continue our support for communities.
LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:
“We're thrilled to be launching ‘The Winners Share It All’ campaign as we continue to offer meaningful value for our member-owners and an exciting way to provide even more support for our member’s local communities.
“The prize draw is open to all existing and new Co-op member-owners and the best part is that all people need to do is make sure they remember to swipe their card when they shop and have selected a cause.
“To become a member-owner, customers can sign up in-store or online for just £1 and start saving on their daily shop while supporting local groups in their area.”
