Coffee with a service record

We’re Stephen and Sandra. Two retired RAF veterans who decided our next job was a simple one: sell proper coffee and hand every penny of profit to veterans and military families. That’s the whole business plan.

100%

Of profits go to veterans and military families

Not a percentage of a percentage. Not “profits after directors’ salaries”. There are no salaries. We volunteer our time, the coffee pays its own bills, and everything left over goes where we said it would.

No salaries

No shareholders

Our Story

Two RAF careers. One second act.

Between us we gave more than 50 years to the Royal Air Force. When we hung up the uniforms, we knew plenty of people who left service with far less waiting for them on the other side. Some struggling with money. Some with housing. Some just struggling.

We couldn’t fix all of that. But we could sell coffee. So that’s what we do. Every bag sold at an airshow, a market or through this site puts money directly into supporting veterans, homeless veterans, serving personnel and their families.

It’s a small operation. Just the two of us, a lot of early starts, and coffee we’re genuinely proud of. If you buy a bag, you’re part of it.

Where The Money Goes

Follow the pound

The Veterans Coffee Company is a non-profit. In plain English: nobody owns it for personal gain and 100% of profits go towards the work below. Every penny counts, and every penny is accounted for.

Homeless Veterans

Tackling homelessness among veterans head on, including creating real job opportunities that help people back onto their feet with dignity.

Easing The Transition

Practical help for those leaving the forces and finding civilian life harder than anyone warned them. Support, connection, and a community where veterans are valued.

Military Families

Improving quality of life for serving personnel and their families, including better facilities on military bases across the UK.

Be Part Of It

Not a coffee drinker? You can still help

Donations go exactly the same way as our profits: job opportunities for homeless veterans and support for military families in need.

Every contribution helps restore dignity to people who served this country and found the way back harder than it should be. Whatever you can give, it goes to work.
