Becoming a Multistakeholder Co-operative

Your Co-op for the Future

The Urban Co-op and Wellness Hub are in the process of converting legal structure from a Company Limited by Guarantee to a Full Co-operative. As a viable route towards community ownership, we are currently looking at the potential of a Multistakeholder Co-operative model. This means there are various groups of people who can avail of the Co-operative in different ways. Your feedback is vital to this process.
