At Co-op, we believe that pregnancy loss is a deeply personal experience of grief that deserves compassion and meaningful support. That’s why, in partnership with the Miscarriage Association, we introduced a dedicated policy offering paid leave and tailored resources for colleagues and their partners, regardless of the stage of pregnancy or circumstances. This policy reflects our commitment to fostering more inclusive workplaces where colleagues feel truly valued during life’s most difficult moments. The Women and Equalities Committee’s recommendation to extend statutory bereavement leave to cover pregnancy loss is an important and necessary step. By ensuring universal support for those navigating this profound loss, we can create workplaces that truly care and make a meaningful difference to so many.
How does Co-op Live benefit the community? 💙 Every year, Co-op Live will donate at least £1m to their charity partner, Co-op Foundation to support young people and youth organisations to create fairer, kinder, and more inclusive communities across the UK. 🙌 The donation supports initiatives like the Young Gamechangers Fund, which awards grants up to £20k to young people leading positive change in their communities. 💃 Co-op Live is also giving tickets to every show to Co-op Foundation, awarding free seats to people doing amazing things in their community. Gigs at Co-op Live really do give back. Doing good never sounded so good.

We are so proud to see Co-op Live take the entertainment world by storm. Co-op’s venue partnership is a unique naming rights deal with Oak View Group & City Football Group and is the very definition of co-operation, working together on nearly every aspect of the venue. And Co-op is woven throughout it – from branding to community values, to our exclusive member benefits and to the food we serve our fans. We joined forces with Salford legend Dr. John Cooper Clarke to put into words what makes Co-op Live so special with a poem, Proper Sound, brought to life by Lucky Generals and ICONOCLAST. It is a rhythmic tribute to this incredible Manchester-based music venue built on Co-op values. From the humble days of outdoor bogs to the modern marvel of Co-op Live, John paints a vivid picture of resilience, community, and the boundless power of music. PROPER SOUND
