*The SUSY project has given us an opportunity to find unique and interesting social and solidarity economy organisations in the UK which support and connect people in different ways. We decided to share the stories of two organisations creating waves of change in their sectors. Supply Cha!nge seeks to raise awareness about the ethics of supply chains used by major European supermarkets, and the focus of this workshop was workers’ rights within those supply chains.
