Celebrating pride

We believe there’s no place for prejudice in our communities and everyone is welcome. Discover how shopping with us means you are actively supporting causes that help to break down barriers and help those who feel alienated.

We’ve given our backing to multiple events across the UK.

The only retailer to speak in Parliament

We were in the House of Commons to support the Equal Marriage Bill.

Co-op has been in the Stonewall Workplace Equality Index for over a decade.

A proud history

When you shop at Co-op, you’re supporting our commitment to LGBTQ+ causes. For many years, we’ve been investing in projects that can make a difference – in changing lives and minds. We also have a history of speaking up about equality rights.

Co-op has a history of campaigning on the equality rights and was the only retailer to speak in Parliament in support of the Equal Marriage Bill. We’ve been included in the Stonewall Workplace Equality Index for more than 10 years.

We’re proud to say that all Co-op Academies are Stonewall Champions. The Co-op Foundation has also received funding to work with Greater Manchester Co-op Academies to support the set-up of a LGBTQ+ schools alliance. This is being delivered by the Proud Trust.

Buying our own brand products means 1% of the money goes to causes such as Liverpool City Region Pride.
