 You know, over the last few years, the UK co-op sector has seen some really good progress. Specific sectors such as agriculture, social care and energy have become much more co-operative. Community shares have helped co-ops raise the finance they need for new start-ups while taking cooperation to new communities. The Hive, a new business support program, has launched to great excitement with ambition to help new co-op start-ups, existing co-ops to grow and regular businesses transition to a co-op model. But there's so much more we can do. What if more people could breathe new life into their local high streets, libraries and landmarks by owning and running them together? What if staff not only had a say in what their organisation did, but they owned and controlled it together? What if people had a real stake in the businesses and organisations they use from supermarkets to social care services? Ultimately, we need more of the economy to be in co-operative hands by making it easier for people to take control of the things that matter to them, their work, their shops, their local areas. To do this, we need a strategy. And we need this strategy to be owned, supported and promoted by the whole UK co-op sector. So we need to write the strategy with you. We'll be asking your opinion through interviews, discussion at Congress and online engagement. We'll be looking at overseas innovation as well as great examples from the UK. And we'll be conducting a census. The UK's first ever census of the co-operative movement. To give us more information about where you are now, where you'd like to be and how the sector might help you to get there. You know, this is an exciting project that will set the agenda for the future. But we need you to work with us. Please do get involved. Thank you.
