Founded in 2015, Change Please is an award-winning social enterprise which aims to end homelessness through selling great tasting coffee. We do this through giving 100% of our annual profits to the Change Please Foundation. These profits, along with other donations to the Foundation go towards training people experiencing homelessness to become baristas and supporting them with everything they need to turn their lives around.
Our impact work started in London with a single cart in Covent Garden. This was followed by the opening of a Speciality Coffee Association Accredited Training Academy in Peckham, London. Today we have 10 retail sites across London.
We can cater to all coffee needs, both big and small.
Thank you for your support!
