It’s been a year since we launched Maritime Mornings, our single-origin coffee dedicated to supporting the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust (EMCT).
This partnership was born from a cause incredibly close to our hearts, and with £1 from every pack sold going directly to the charity, we wanted to create something that would continue to give back, year after year.
The EMCT provides kids who have undergone cancer treatment the opportunity to have adventures, experience something new, and meet others who’ve faced similar journeys. It is incredibly unique in its approach.
The charity supports young people like our son Harry, who was diagnosed with cancer at just 4 years old. After three years of chemotherapy, Harry thankfully made a full recovery. Like every parent we've met along this journey, our greatest hope is for our children to move forward, live life to the fullest, and not be defined by their cancer.
In the past year, we’ve sold 750 packs of Maritime Mornings, meaning that together we’ve raised £750 for the Trust. This is a huge achievement, and we can’t thank you enough for supporting both the coffee and the charity. Every pack sold helps more children experience the life-changing impact of these trips. As Harry himself shared after his most recent trip:
"These trips are amazing! For kids like me who’ve been through so much, it’s a chance to connect with each other and to meet people who really get it. Sailing trips with EMCT have given me the confidence to take on new adventures."
