COMPASSIONATE COFFEE’S IMPACT

How Your Coffee Helps

Each coffee served makes a real difference to children and their families.

EVERY CUP COUNTS

The hospice relies on coffee lovers like you.

Right now, over 250 children and families are supported by the team at Alexander Devine Children’s Hospice Service.

Running the service costs more than £3.1 million a year, and less than 1/5th of this comes from government funding. The rest depends on fundraising, which is exactly where Connie, our hospice fundraising coffee van, comes in.
