Guest Speakers: Footprint, Workers Cooperate

An organisation that is a 'worker owned cooperative', they all work together, pay each other equal wages, and always get to decide which clients and work they want to take on.
Started in 2000, when they inherited a lightbulb press.
They realised that the lightbulb press was not very environmentally friendly as it used various solvents and aluminium plates, so they invested in a risograph.
They now use the risograph as their main printer, and work with various business around the country, working mostly on magazines and zines.
