Caffeine addiction is real but so is coffee farmer poverty. We’re out here hooked up to an IV of coffee, but the farmers who grow it can’t even afford basic needs. It’s time for a #LivingIncome in coffee as farmers deserve to thrive, not just survive. Pay fair, sip guilt-free.
Better coffee, better future! ☕🌍 Slow Coffee is restoring forests, cutting carbon emissions & ensuring farmers earn a living wage. Every sip fuels sustainability.

Whoever you are - whether you’re a single parent trying to look after your family, or a family new to the country, struggling to find work or just trying to make ends meet - we need a system that looks after us all. A Living Income would give people the financial and employment support they need, when they need it. We are campaigning for this transformative change within our communities.
We're backing a #LivingIncome pilot in Greater Manchester.
This is a campaign for a system that looks after us all - and doesn't discriminate based on where we're from.
