Coffee at the University of Kent

Social Impact Coffee is now being served in Gulbenkian Café and the new TukTuk in Hut 8.

Canterbury Food Bank get's the vote – Social Impact Coffee

Students and staff have voted for a local charity to receive 65% of the profit generated by Social Impact Coffee sold on campus.

Canterbury Food Bank, a local organisation providing emergency food parcels to people in financial crisis across Canterbury, Whitstable, Herne Bay, and nearby villages.

By choosing Social Impact Coffee, you are:

• Supporting local families and individuals facing food insecurity
• Helping fund essential supplies distributed across the district
• Contributing to community wellbeing through your everyday coffee purchase

Thank you for helping us support Canterbury Food Bank this year.

Adam Ratcliffe, Trustee and Fundraising Chair at Canterbury Food Bank, was delighted with this announcement and commented: “The partnership with Social Impact Coffee at the University of Kent is really exciting. Receiving 65% of the profits from coffee sales is not only innovative, but it also provides a consistent and meaningful source of funding that directly supports people in our community facing hardship.

What makes this partnership so powerful is its simplicity – staff and students buying their daily coffee are contributing to something much bigger. It’s a model of social impact that truly works, and we’re incredibly grateful to Adrian and the team at Social Impact Coffee for their commitment to making a difference where it matters most.”
