Community Dividend

Our Community Dividend programme is a major commitment.  So long as we continue to be successful as a business we will continue to support the many and varied communities within our region.

What is Community Dividend?

Our principal charity share number is 660.   Members, if they wish, donate the dividend on any of their purchases to a charity account. Every year hundreds of worthy organisations with local connections benefit from the funds generously donated by our members.   This is a simple but highly effective method of supporting local good causes and last year more than £100,000 was raised and distributed.

Donations are made by one-off contributions of cash, vouchers, or goods in kind, and range in value from £10 to £1,000 - higher in exceptional circumstances.

The 660 fund also supports longer-term giving to over 120 local groups, charities and projects that receive regular donations of £240 each year.  Larger sums go to the Leagues of Friends of our district hospitals in Ipswich, Norwich and Gorleston.

You can help by quoting 660

If you are a member of the East of England Co-operative Society, you can donate your Dividend to good causes by handing your Dividend card over at our tills and stating that you wish to donate your points to Share Number 660.
