The Scottish Crofting Federation are asking members of the public to sign up for a revolution by voting for a Young Crofters initiative they have lodged with the Co-operative movement. When the Co-op was formed in 1844 its democratic principles marked a revolution in business practices.
Now, drawing on their own history, the Co-operative movement are seeking to empower other public spirited groups with a one off grant of £5000. To win the money the group needs to make a case for the revolutionary principles of its project.
