We’ve done it again! Having been chosen as a Co-op local community cause at Holmfirth Co-operative store for the entirety of 2024, we’ve been chosen again for the second year running! This means we will receive additional funds for our work in the local community around climate action, and in case you couldn’t tell, we are THRILLED!
Since 2020, the Co-op has shared more than £58m with nearly 20,500 unique community projects across the UK, giving opportunity for greater capacity of charities and organisations, who play a vital role in the wellbeing of communities, The premise of the fund is very simple – the more Co-operative members use their blue Co-op membership card at the checkout, the more funding The Co-operative allocates to support local causes.
Here at fairandfunky we believe that as individuals we each have the power to make a positive difference in the world; through the way we act, what we wear, where we shop and what we do. Empowering the young people with this knowledge plays a huge part in creating the next generation of active citizens and change-makers, and the Co-op funding will allow us to do much more of this on our doorstep. In the 2024 round of funding we racked up a whopping £4317.34, PLUS we were the lucky winners of the “Winners Share it All” prize draw, meaning we received an additional £5000 for our work in the community.
So, as you can see, it makes a HUGE difference to us when you choose us as your local community cause, and the best news is that it’s free for you to do and absolutely anyone can choose us. All you have to do is click this link, choose us as your cause, then use your blue Co-op card when you shop, and we’ll receive vital funds from The Co-op throughout 2025 – it’s that easy!
Thank you for your support, and for choosing fairandfunky. Together, we can all take little steps to change the world.
