About Us
Award-winning social enterprise
Well Grounded is an award-winning social enterprise, launched in 2016 to support the UK’s unemployed with the skills to access sustainable careers in coffee.

We run a series of Specialty Coffee Training Academies for adults not in education, employment or training. We empower people with the skills, training, mentorship and qualifications they need to access work in the specialty coffee industry. Our aftercare programme transitions over 70% of our Graduates into work, further training and education and provides ongoing free wellbeing and coffee training. Our career accelerator programmes empower progression for the entire workforce.
