We are looking forward to welcoming you to this year's Building Community Power: Co-operative Party Annual Conference 2021 – our showcase of co-operative politics and the largest political gathering of the year for the UK co‑operative movement.

Our Building Community Power conference is free to attend and open to all, whether you've just heard of the Party or are a long-standing member.

After the success of our first ever online annual conference last year, and in light of uncertainties concerning the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, this conference will be held online with a number of events spread over 5th-16th October. You’ll be able to join us and participate from the comfort of your own home, on your computer, tablet or phone!

The programme

First we'll be hearing from our across our nations with our Parliamentary updates starting Tuesday 5th October. Conference Weekend will then take place on Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th October, filled with an exciting programme of keynote speakers, policy debates and campaign workshops. This will then be followed by a week of events from our Equality Networks, and closed on Saturday 16th October with the Co-operative Party's Annual General Meeting (AGM).
