Become a member of Solidfund

Workers are for the most part 'people without capital' – so how do we shift economic power to workers?  

For the most part, worker cooperatives don't have access to investment funds, public money or charity finance. Yet taking and maintaining collective worker ownership still usually requires money.

Solidfund is our answer. By pooling lots of small regular contributions from individual supporters, we're creating an effective resource for worker co-op assistance, learning and solidarity.

It’s simple, and we've proved it works. We put money in. We discuss then decide how to distribute money, where it’s most needed. Things change. Over the last ten years, we've distributed more than £200,000 to support worker cooperators and worker co-op causes. It's made possible by workers and supporters like you who are ready to invest intelligently from their own income and savings.

Become a member from just £1 a week, and support workers' control by turning your solidarity into a material force.

 

Three ways to join

Sign up as an individual supporter, as a group of people at the same time, or as an organisation.

Many of our new members are individual worker cooperators and supporters. If you're a group - for instance a collective or a worker co-op - you can still register everyone individually as members, but with a single collective payment. You'll be asked to provide contact details for each person.

Finally, we welcome supportive organisations into membership. In this case, it's the organisation that's the member, so we'll also ask for the contact details of a named individual who will act on its behalf.
