consultancy.coop www.consultancy.coop is a co-operative of experienced third sector consultants based in Wales. It uses a relatively new legal format for co-operatives – the Limited Liability Partnership. The LLP was designed originally for partnerships of professionals, enabling them to gain a more formal arrangement than existing partnerships and for the organisation itself to benefit from limited liability status. Co-operatives UK have adapted the model into a form especially designed for co-operatives of freelancers and other professionals.

consultancy.coop delivers the Hive across Wales. The Hive is a Co-operative Bank supported development and support programme for new and start-up co-ops. More details, or to make an online application go to http://www.uk.coop/the-hive/
