Who are we?
Co-operatives West Midlands is the representative body for the co-operative sector, standing up for hundreds of member-owned businesses and organisations.
​
We're one of the organisations behind the Save Birmingham campaign, which was launched last year in response to the financial challenges facing Birmingham City Council based on co-operative solutions and community ownership.
​
This year, we're putting forward an ambitious co-operative manifesto in the run up to key local elections taking place in the West Midlands on 2 May 2024 - including the West Midlands Mayor. We're non-party political, and encourage candidates from all political parties to adopt policies that will support and strengthen the co-operative sector in the West Midlands.
