Radical Routes is a United Kingdom-based co-operative federation. The organisation provides support to housing and worker co-operatives as well as social centres. This support is given in the form of mutual aid. As members of the network are all doing similar work in different parts of the country they are able to share experience and information for the benefit of all. Radical Routes provides small loans (up to about £50,000) to member co-operatives. Decisions on making loans are made by other member co-operatives (this is described as "peer-group loan appraisal").
