We know that you are doing an incredible job, going above and beyond to help our members, customers and fellow colleagues, whilst adapting to this ever-changing and challenging time.
We want to share your stories of giving a thumbs up with other colleagues to keep morale high and to show that as co-operators we’re all in this together as team Midcounties. ‘Thumbs Up’ is our way of celebrating all your heroic efforts by sharing your great work and giving other colleagues the ability to like it.
Our Thumbs Up Weekly Round Up 👍
Our 75,000th Home Delivery customer is 100-year-old Bruce Harris! His Neighbour Colin sent in this message 👍🌈
"I am Colin's neighbour who has shopped every week for him since the beginning of lockdown in March. Having been working non-stop throughout lockdown I wanted to ensure Brucey was supported with his weekly shop whilst I was away. Many many thanks for the hamper and the pictures, and fantastic that he is the 75,000 home delivery, he was over the moon. And many thanks to Dave too for the fantastic volunteering work he and others are doing. The Co-op at it’s very best!"
"I'd like to give a massive thumbs up to all the Colleagues at Bletchingdon Food, and the lovely residents who came out in droves to cheer me over the line at the end of my 20 mile run yesterday, I made it (almost!) and was worth the pain! All in aid of Muscular Dystrophy UK. So far I have raised over £900 so far!"
A massive well done to Mike Seaton, Store Manager at Bletchingdon Food! 👍😊 Click here to donate.
"We are having all these lovely thumbs up and thanks from our customers, and now we have our very own “virtual” thank you cards on Colleagues Connect." Thank you, Shell, from Vine Island Post Office - keep on sending the thank you's to each other 😊👍
A Childcare parent Thank You 👍😊
Travel Thank You's😊 ✈
How you can get involved
We want you to share a picture of yourself and/or your team with your thumbs up and include a sentence outlining why you’ve given yourself, your team or a team member a ‘thumbs up’ today, along with the hashtag #TeamMC.
E.g. it could be some great customer feedback you’ve had for going above and beyond. Or something you’ve done to help the community that they’re proud of. Or just that the team is Okay.
To note: please take care of social distancing for pictures together as we are also following guidelines on this and hope you are too!
You can share these either on your group's Facebook groups or by simply sending it to thumbsup@midcounties.coop
We will be posting weekly Thumbs Up round up every Sunday on the homepage of Colleagues Connect, so remember to log on and be reminded of what makes our Society so great – your colleagues. You can also take the chance to give them a pat on the back yourself by commenting on the post.
Don’t forget if you have any great pictures or videos post them on your Facebook group or email them to us at thumbsup@midcounties.coop
If you would not like your information shown above, please let us know at Communications@midcounties.coop stating your full name and we will remove as soon as we can.
