Calling all Lambeth co-ops

If you run a local co-operative, mutual society or social enterprise then please get in touch. We are looking for Lambeth co-ops of all sizes so we can learn from you. We would like to visit you to find out more about how you have made the cooperative ethos work for your organisation. Email cooperativecouncil@lambeth.gov.uk for further details.

What services should become a co-op?

What council services do you think should be part of the co-operative approach? Anything from libraries and parks to playgroups could become a co-op pilot. Email your thoughts to cooperativecouncil@lambeth.gov.uk or collaborate on them on our wiki page.
