Catalyzing worker co-ops & the solidarity economy

Eco builders Tŷ Pren transition to workers’ co-operative

Established in 2013 by Jamie Miller, Tŷ Pren was already running as a community business, but thanks to the help of Cwmpas (formerly the Wales Cooperative Centre) it is now officially a workers’ cooperative putting community and worker benefits at the heart of what it does.
