Born in Enfield, Middlesex, Campbell joined the British Federation of Young Co-operators. He was a conscientious objector during the Second World War, working as an agricultural labourer. After the war he became involved with the Co-operative Party, soon becoming assistant general secretary, then in 1962 was appointed general secretary.

Campbell retired in 1985 and moved to Portugal with friends; the group later returned to the UK.
