John Short and Neville Pringle review the notes from the meeting

Former workers from Allendale Co-operative Society enjoyed an afternoon of reminiscing about their time at the Co-op.

The staff met with Jared Dunn, from Allen Valley’s Local History Group, Co-op General Manager Neville Pringle, and Co-op Director John Short to chat about the way things used to be and the changes that they have seen.

This was the first part of an exciting project to make a History Timeline for the Co-op, as part of their 150th Anniversary Celebrations.
