The Channel Islands Co-operative Society the main sponsors of inaugural Channel Islands Pride events in Guernsey and Jersey. We have previously sponsored Jersey Pride and as a community retailer with hundreds of colleagues and thousands of customers, we were delighted to extend that support to the initiative in both islands. We loved the United through Pride theme of the events in both islands and wanted to support what we saw as a celebration of our richly diverse communities, and a time to renew our defence of our most fundamental right: the right to be ourselves, without the fear of discrimination and violence. We had a special logo with the company name in rainbow colours, our staff were involved in events in both islands and we also organised a bursting with pride balloon pop where islanders could win vouchers to spend with us.

The Society pride itself on treating employees with respect and in providing a working environment which is free from discrimination, victimisation or harassment on the grounds of sex, age, marital status, disability, sexuality, race, colour, religion, ethnic or national origin. By supporting Channel Islands Pride, we hope we helped to celebrate the diversity found in our own teams which reflects the communities we serve.
