Co-op Members shopping in Upchurch have helped raise £4997.28 for our local causes. To celebrate, Co-op colleague Sally Butcher presented Sandy and John Tutt from the Upchurch Village Hall Management Committee with a cheque for £1738.88, money which was raised by Co-op members who chose the Village Hall as their local cause during the last 12 month round of funding which began in November 2017.
1% for local causes
The co-op give 1% of what members spend on Co-op branded food products in their stores and selected services, as well as money raised from sales of carrier bags and Co-op scratch cards, to local causes.
So just by buying a pint of milk from one of their stores, you could help make things better in your community.
You can choose which cause you want your own 1% to go to.
Any money raised by members who don’t select a cause is added to the money raised from shopping bag sales and shared equally between the causes in your local area.
