Central Midlands - The Co-operative

Together we can
build a better world
Thank you for taking the time to vote in
The Co-operative Membership 2012 elections,
your vote really does make a difference.
This booklet has all the information you
need to know about the people who would like
to represent you on your Area Committee.
The process of voting is very easy, and just
takes a little time for you to consider which of
the candidates you would prefer to represent
your views.
To help your deliberations we have broken up
the process into four easy steps:
On page 4 you will find some
STEP 1 information about your current Area
Committee and on the following page we
tell you more about how many places are
available on your committee.
Each candidate has provided an
election address which should help
you make your decision.
STEP 2
Once you have a good idea of what
STEP 3 each representative stands for, use
the ballot paper to indicate your preferences.
All the details you need about the election can
be found on the ballot paper. Remember, you
can vote online if you prefer, in which instance
you will receive 25 membership points. Again
further details are provided on the ballot paper.
Sit back and relax, feeling great
STEP 4
that you have done something that
will really make a difference to you, your
community and the co-operative you part own.
Thanks again for your support.
The photograph on the front cover features three members who were elected to Area Committee for the
first time in 2011: Irene Duckworth (Central & Eastern Region), Anna Brisley (North West & North Midlands
Region) and Martin Ferguson (Scotland & Northern Ireland Region).
