Originally created as a maker co-operative back in 1984, we still maintain a strong co-operative ethos, with a focus on fairness, emphasising equality and sustainability. We still retain the strong co-operative ethos and maintain strong ethical values today.

These are two pillars on which our organisation operates with and values.
