Co-op shoppers in Cornwall could win £500 for themselves and £5k for a local cause of their choice.
If your New Year's resolution is to give back to your community, but you're already short on time or money, there's a free, easy way to make a difference if you shop at Co-op:
Download the Co-op app and choose a local cause to support this year.
Each year, Co-op selects a number of good causes to support. In 2026, NeuroHappiness, a Community Interest Company helping neurodivergent families in Cornwall build happier home lives, has been chosen as one of them.
As part of Co-op's prize draw, members who have selected a local cause in their app are entered each month for the chance to win £500 for themselves and £5,000 for their chosen cause.
Vicky Coxhead, Founder of NeuroHappiness said:
"£5,000 would be transformative to our work. Last year, our Aloha Kākou Shaka, programme offered 80 low-cost or free places at our summer surf club for neurodivergent youngsters, and we'd love to secure funding to run it again."
How to enter:
Open the Co-op App and choose the local cause you wish to support (NeuroHappiness appears first on the list).
Spend £5 or more in a Co-op store.
Swipe your Co-op membership card when you shop (membership costs £1 for life).
