As well as the national campaign, which is supported by major
retailers including
Marks and Spencer,
Tesco,
John Lewis Partnership,
Wickes and
Boots,[2] there are also local campaigns in various cities including Cambridge (where the campaign was founded),
Birmingham, London and York.[3] In addition to encouraging the participation of retailers,
consumers are also encouraged to participate by closing shop doors and
boycotting shops that refuse to close their doors.[4]
The Campaign is supported by the shopworkers
UnionUSDAW both because of the energy reduction and the increase in staff comfort.[5] The
Carbon Trust and the
British Retail Consortium are members of the steering group.[6]
