A Fair Deal

Anyone who attended an event over Co-operatives Fortnight may have picked up a ‘co-operative’ pack of cards. A great way to replace the dog eared packs that usually find themselves in a corner somewhere, missing an ace of spades or seven of hearts (at least that’s generally the condition the packs in my house come in). The yellow packs being circulated in Co-operative Fortnight will hopefully have more staying power.

Produced with a co-operative action on each card you can now play Solitaire while learning about the co-operative schools community or discuss ways of encouraging Bees into your garden while playing Rummy with friends.

The six of spades has a special significance to us here at Shared Interest as it bears the message “Open a share account with Shared Interest.”

We hope to see many people taking these co-operative actions. Why not join us on August 25^th, 52 days after the end of Co-operatives Fortnight, at the Co-operative Hive to see how many actions have been taken?

In the meantime, enjoy your card games and don’t forget to let us know if you manage to complete any of the action points!
