the crypt cafe is staffed by volunteers, who believe in the effectiveness of fairtrade and want to make a difference

the cafe was founded by speak as a christian reponse to the unfairness of the world coffee market. speak is a network of young people in the UK praying and campaigning for justice. many of the staff are motivated by their faith and believe in actions speaking louder than words

There are currently three shifts a week: 6:30pm - 10pm on thurday evenings and 10am - 1:30pm and 1:30pm - 5pm on saturdays. We ask that all volunteers commit to at least one shift per month. if you are interested get in touch and find out more.
