What is the In It Together Fund?

The In It Together Fund is a pot of money raised by donors throughout the coffee industry to support independent coffee shops within the U.K. to get through the Corona Crisis. Initially set-up by Alpro and supported by UK Coffee Week, we’re calling on the coffee industry to dig deep and get behind their independent coffee shops so we can help as many as possible get through this lockdown period.
 

Who is the fund available to?

In short, coffee shops with in the U.K. with up to 5 sites. We want to help as many coffee shops as possible, but the feedback we’ve had from the industry is that the smaller independents are the ones who are really in need. So donations will only be made to coffee shops within the U.K. with 5 sites or less, and only one donation will be made per brand.
 

What support is available?

Every successful application is eligible for a donation of £2,500. The donations will be distributed on a first come first served basis, unfortunately we can’t guarantee a donation to everyone, but we are working hard to raise as much money as possible so we can help as many independent coffee shops as possible.
 

How do you apply?

It’s simple and easy. All you need to do to apply is fill out the application form on this website and we’ll be in touch to let you know the next steps.
