🚲 Big thanks to The Rotary Club of Hebden Bridge for their generous £1,000 grant!

The grant went towards buying two electric bikes to help our team get around sustainably (and make the most of this weather!) ☀️

Also a special shout-out to Carlton at Recharge Bikes for the generous discount. 🌱🚴‍♀️

Both ebikes are standing near to where they are sat on a picnic table in the sun.

At Equal Care Co-op, we often say we're a relationship-centred care organisation, but what does that look like in practice?

There's a lot that makes us who we are, but at the heart of it all is mutual care 🤝💛

A rotating mandala-like illustration describing the values and principles that make up Equal Care Co-op, comprising of those of the co-operative movement, sociocracy and Equal Care themselves. Mutual care is at the beating heart of it all.
