Will there be
refreshments?
There will be Tea & Coffee on arrival and
food will be provided before the meeting.
Disability Access?
All the venues are checked for disability
access, a hearing loop will be provided.
Please ask if there are any other
disability needs that we should be aware
of and if any member has a very specific
query regarding access please contact
your regional office. If anyone requires a
disabled parking space please contact
Kevin McGrother.
Most venues are in a central location
with public transport links and therefore
no transport is provided. The Circle is
within walking distance of many major
bus routes and approximately a 10
minute walk from the Train Station and
Will the Co-operative be
providing any transport
to the meetings?
Sheffield Interchange. The Circle is just
minutes away from the Sheffield
Supertram which offers Park and Ride
facilities (the City Hall tram stop is a 2
minute walk).
Can I attend a
Members’ Meeting
which is not in the area
in which I live?
Members can attend a meeting outside of
their area as long as that is the only
members’ meeting of that type (i.e. HalfYearly) attended that year.
The Half-Yearly members’ meetings focus
on Co-operative businesses within that
postcode area and if a member attends
who resides outside that area the results
and reports will not necessarily be
relevant to the area in which they live
and shop.
Can I bring my
husband/friend along to
the meeting?
They will not be able to participate in any
voting which may take place or ask
Questions – in effect they will be
attending as an observer.
Anyone is welcome to attend but they
must be a member of the Co-operative
Group and they need to booked on to the
event with their full details. If you are
not a member you can join over the
phone via the membership contact centre
prior to booking a place.
