With many parts of Europe and the rest of the world now requiring you to self isolate upon return, there’s never been a better time to holiday in the UK (and Ireland). Aside from this, there are plenty of reasons to holiday in Blighty....
1. The Extensive and Fascinating History
Cooking from scratch isn’t always realistic, especially during the busy working week. That’s where our tasty Italian style ready meals come in. Co-op Beef Lasagne and Co-op Bolognese Pasta Bake both contain 100% British beef, with pasta, a rich, creamy béchamel sauce and mature Cheddar cheese. Looking for something veggie?

Hello, Gallo
Eight out of 10 consumers who shopped locally during the Covid-19 lockdown intend to continue their new habit once the crisis is over, new co-op study shows.
One in three shoppers say that they have used local retailers more since the pandemic struck and 80% of them aim to carry on shopping this way in the future, according to a YouGov poll for Co-operatives UK.

Worldwide holidaymakers have had to put their trips on pause this year and with so much uncertainty surrounding the self-isolation rules, it's clear that most are now searching for a 2021 holiday to remember!
Only recently, after being given the green light, Spain is now back on the 'self isolation for 14 days after return' list, putting many off travelling there and grinding tourism back to a halt.
Brambles Restaurants, located within our Quadrant Department Stores will be offering 50% off food and drink on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout August.

Chelmsford Star Co-operative has proudly announced that its employees, customers and members have together, raised a massive £34,606 for its thirteenth Charity of the Year, Essex & Herts Air Ambulance.
Many fundraising events took place throughout the year to achieve this total, including book sales, remembrance evenings and raffles. However, the lockdown period brought on by the coronavirus pandemic did bring fundraising to somewhat of a halt!
