The Midcounties Co-operative’s travel agency in Evesham will re-open in a new location and with a fresh look on 12 April, following the easing of lockdown restrictions.


Formerly called “Co-operative Travel”, and located at 72 High St, the branch has moved to 15 Bridge Street in Evesham and has been re-branded “Your Co-op Travel”. 


Located within a conservation area in Evesham, the building has a 20 year history as a travel agency, trading as Hays, Thomas Cook and Going Places in the past. It has also been home to a bakery and a shoe shop in its time.


The Midcounties Co-operative will re-open all 78 of its high street travel agency branches on 12 April, including five in Worcestershire.


Natalie Turner, Head of Retail for Your Co-op Travel, said: “We’re hugely excited to be re-opening our branches on 12 April and are especially pleased to be able to showcase the new “Your Co-op Travel” name, look and feel at our Evesham store. We can’t wait to welcome customers back into the branches and to be able to offer them that all-important, personal contact with a travel expert again.


“It’s a confusing time for holidaymakers, right now,” continued Turner, “and that’s why it’s never been more important to book with an experienced and trusted travel agent.  For customers’ peace of mind, we are offering flexible payment options, free child places as well as free changes and cancellations, low deposits and cash refunds within 10 days, as part of the Co-op Holidays Promise.


“As one of the UK’s largest independent consumer co-operative societies, we’re fully owned by our members and the new “Your Co-op” name really reflects that idea of belonging to the members.


“Our purpose is to serve our members and our success is down to building great connections with our customers, member-owners and the communities in which we operate.  Our members have a direct say in the decisions we make, whether that is shaping our long-term business strategy or choosing how we support their local communities."
