HUDDERSFIELD AND COLNE VALLEY CO-OPERATIVE PARTY 

As the political  party of the co-operative movement, we believe that things work best when ordinary people have a voice, and when services are accountable to the people who use them.  Democratic, public ownership of the services and utilities we all rely on. Tackling the housing crisis through co-operative housing. Fans having a say in their sports club. Credit unions as an alternative to rip-off lenders. Shops owned by their customers that give back to the community.

Locally there are new and inspiring Co-operative initiatives such as Colne Valley Equitable Care Society providing domiciliary care and Eco Holmes Community Land Trust focused on affordable, low energy housing.

Whether in government or opposition, for a century the Co-operative Party has been a voice for co-operative values and principles in the places where decisions are taken, and laws are made.  Visit the national website here.   And the Facebook Page here.

When do we meet?

Huddersfield Co-operative Party meets at 7.15pm on the 3^rd Wednesday  in alternate months on Zoom or at Huddersfield Methodist Mission, Lord Street HUDDERSFIELD HD1 1QA.
