Rainbows drawn by local children cover the windows of many Southern Co-op stores and messages of thanks have been shared with both its retail and funeralcare colleagues. With the pandemic affecting the lives of thousands of people, these small actions are making a di erence and helping Southern Co-op colleagues to continue caring for the bereaved and putting food on the shelves to keep our communities fed. In order to support Southern Co-op’s 250 food stores, funeral homes and Crematoria across the south of England, the independent co-operative has recruited and trained 348 extra colleagues. It has also tted more than 700 protective till screens, installed 9,000 social distancing floor markings, established a dedicated daily shopping hour for the vulnerable, and o ered all NHS and social care workers a 10% discount. For its frontline teams, it has offered a special recognition scheme with a bonus for eligible retail and funeralcare colleagues. Southern Co-op has donated £50,000 to FareShare, the UK’s largest hunger ghting charity, to support the distribution of food to charities in the south. To help make a bigger impact, customers are being invited to add to this donation. For every £1 donated, FareShare (registered charity number 1100051) is able to redistribute four meals so a £5 donation equals 20 meals to vulnerable people. Text ‘SOUTH’ to 70490 to donate £5 to FareShare - texts cost £5 plus your standard network rate (T&Cs are available on Southern Co-op’s website). Donate in store - make your donation at the till point when shopping in one of their food stores (stores.thesouthernco-operative. co.uk/search.html)/ Go online - make a donation via fareshare. charitycheckout.co.uk/southernco- operative#!/ In order to help other community groups in the south that have been a ected by COVID-19, Southern Co-op also donated £40,000 to the Neighbourly Community Fund which is providing micro-grants of up to £400. Grants are awarded to good causes in the UK and Ireland whose work involves supporting members of the community su ering with loss of income, isolation or ill health as a result of the outbreak. A further £10,000 has been donated to the National Emergency Trust which is channelling support into charities dealing with the immediate community impacts of COVID-19.
