Cooperation Town is a movement of community food co-ops, self organising on streets and estates across the country. There are some in in various areas of Sheffield, and dozens around the UK.

Each food co-op in the movement is a neighbourhood buying group. By organising with their neighbours, members buy food and household products in bulk at very affordable prices, and in addition get free supermarket surplus. The result is that co-op members can often save 40% off their weekly food costs.

Food co-ops are owned by the members, who together decide what to buy and how to run the project. No bosses, No managers! Anyone can start a Cooperation Town food co-op. Join the movement and learn more at the link above, or email for Sheffield related enquiries to Michael.Whitson@vas.org.uk
