Feeling the squeeze from rising living costs? Discover how co-operatives are helping people save money, access affordable services, and support each other through challenging times.
Through interactive activities and real-life examples, explore how consumer co-ops, credit unions, community energy schemes, housing co-ops, and local mutual aid initiatives are making a difference.
