Blog not bulletin

In the Spotlight used to be a monthly e-bulletin. But co-operatives do so much good stuff that by the time the bulletin went out, the stories were old news. Hence this new blog. In the Spotlight is updated as soon as there's a story to tell or a co-operative hits the headlines.

To make sure you're getting the news as it happens keep checking this blog - even better subscribe. And why not get involved too - send your news, comment on posts, link this blog to your website and follow twitter updates.

Ged's Cow! - worker co-operative's winning photo


In September 2008, Ged Cruice was quietly ruminating in the Land Rover of his worker co-operative, Environmental Fieldwork, somewhere in a boggy field in Greater Manchester. To his surprise a black and white visitor joined him to chew the cud and have a spot of lunch. Ged's work over that week opened up the glorious countryside for less able people. Now everyone can experience all this nature up close and personal with Daisy the cow and other domesticated ungulates.

The photo is the North West winner of the Social Enterprise Coalition's photo competition. It is being exhibited at the Contemporary Urban Centre in London, will be framed and hung in the Office of the Third Sector's offices and is available as part of The Times Online's slideshow here.
