Sourced exclusively from estates across East Africa, all the leaves are only hand-picked from tea bushes grown at high altitudes in lush volcanic soil. Your cup of Birchall Tea will be bright, delicious and filled with rich flavour, chosen from a lovely array of exquisite black teas and beautifully balanced fruit and herbal blends.
MoFo Deluxe Drinking Chocolate
MoFo Deluxe is an immensely rich and satisfying dark cocoa sourced from Ghana, with a deep 22-24% cocoa butter flavour and enhanced by the choicest Belgian chocolate flakes. A pure force of nature, it is completely filler-free and blended with 100% certified fair trade organic cane sugar. The MoFo Deluxe taste is fine yet generous, with an intensely enjoyable effect lasting well after you’d had a sip.
Bonsoy
When it comes to soya milk, Bonsoy is the best with a superior quality and taste. The secret? Bonsoy uses a select variety of organic Golden soya beans coupled with a time honoured production process, which gives Bonsoy its unique smooth and mellow flavour. Not only does it taste great in coffee, but also ‘stretches’ like regular cow’s milk, making it a joy to pour, create beautiful latte art, or finish your coffee with a lovely frothy top.

Mahatma Gandhi
We are passionate about helping people and believe in the joy and goodness of giving.
We started off by wanting to donate to various charities, but as the time went by, we became convinced that we want to support people who would benefit from our direct assistance. This became especially clear during our last visit to Morocco, where we met a young man suffering from Multiple Sclerosis. Seeing him and his family in dire straits, we wanted to help and started sending them £80-£100 every month.
People we help
Younnes Akrim, 33 years old
Younnes has MS and cannot walk. He can barely move his fingers, but is able to work on his computer, earning some money by coding. Younnes’ twin brother, who also had MS, died just before last New Year’s Eve, so at the moment Younnes is struggling to cope with his loss and suffers from depression. His Mom died when he was little and he lives with his elderly father and sister, who is their full-time caregiver. Their home is a hut in the slums made out of chip board, with a curtain for a door. £80 a month pays all the family’s living expenses and Internet access, which allows Younnes to keep working.
Hakima
Hakima is around 40 years old, lives alone and has epilepsy, which leaves her unable to work. She needs at least £70 a month for her medicine, which is a lot of money in Morocco.
Orphans in Morocco
We would like to give whatever money is left to the children who live in an orphanage. We will buy clothing, nappies, and toys here and send them over to Morocco, where it’s much needed and appreciated.
So if you’d like to join us in helping these people, you are very welcome to put some money in the box on the table at our pitch in Bloomsbury, and we’ll add all of it to our personal contribution.
We are now introducing a day where all the proceeds from the baked goods sold will go towards helping people in need.
We will be very happy and grateful for anything you wish to contribute.
