About us What we do Crisis Collection: Calling all Co-ops! Due to recent events concerning Covid-19, the Co-operative Heritage Trust would like to take the opportunity to collect from any Co-op; digital and non digital archival materials used throughout the pandemic. Why are we doing this? The pandemic is a unique moment in time and how Co-ops in particular respond to it, given that many are ‘key’ service providers, will be a vital source of information for the future. Our museum and archive service don't just collect historical material: Today’s resources will be the historic record in years to come. What we are interested in collecting: Digital graphics / logos and content produced for your social media and websites Posters / Notices Employee information packs about self care / other information during the outbreak Safety information given to staff and the public Uniform / preventative clothing issued (un-used examples only) Images of your stores or premises at this time Food information (stock) or your business impact Public announcements and feel good stories. We expect most of these resources to be digital, but we are also interested in objects we could display at a later date and physical archives. *We realise that most of you will be very busy at present.
