Our Society Purpose ‘Creating a sustainable for all’ puts equity, diversity and inclusion at the core of how we do things at Central Co-op.

Every colleague brings something unique and when we bring together those with different experiences, ages and perspectives, we’re a better team. We know diverse teams are more creative, innovative, and empathetic.

Everyone is welcome here

We want all colleagues to feel welcome and included as we know our colleagues are at the heart of what we do. That’s why we’ve worked hard to drive change over the last 18 months.

Our Inclusion journey so far…

Our inclusion networks are colleague led groups who regularly meet. We launched them with the goal of driving change across our business and they’re doing lots of that! But they’ve also become a great place for colleagues to share experiences and make new friends and contacts – great for colleagues who are new to the business.

Inclusive policies

We support all colleagues, no matter what they’re going through. We offer: Menopause support, Trans and non-Binary support, domestic abuse support, fertility treatment and pregnancy loss support to name a few. We’ve signed the Menopause Workplace Pledge and worked closely with fertility Matters at Work to be one of the first 100 companies committed to be becoming fertility friendly.

We partner with...

Diversity in Retail

These are cross industry programmes designed to provide experiences and learning opportunities to support career progression for women and ethnic minorities.
