ECC Election Results

Who cares about the Council and European Elections. The Employee Co-operative Council results are in. Britta Wermer (Unicorn) & Babs McGregor (Green City) have been re-elected. There are also two new faces, Ed Russell of Co-operative Web and Dan Harris from Oxford Cycle Workshop. The new members will join at the first meeting after Congress and will stand for two years as your represenatives at Co-operativesUK.

MACGREGOR, Babs 266 ELECTED
WERNER, Britta 245 ELECTED
RUSSELL, Ed 154 ELECTED
HARRIS, Dan 138 ELECTED
GORECKI, Nik 136
SCHWARZ, Paul 52

No we haven't had a massive jump in membership. Co-operativesUK represents 170 Worker and Employeee Owned Co-operatives. As a secondary co-operative votes are weighted by the economic participation of a member.

Thanks to all members that took part in the elections half of whom voted using our new online system.

If you have any priorities or issues you would like to pass onto the ECC for their consideration, please contact me.

Thanks everyone that voted for me... I'm very pleased to have been voted in and look forward to trying to be a help to the co-operative movement. I'm sure it will be a fantastic experience and a great learning journey.
