Shine

Shine is our barista training for those experiencing isolation and unemployment, enabling them to explore options towards employment within the hospitality industry whilst building their skills and confidence.  Training takes place at our weekly community space: Good Friday.  Upon completion of six workshops and four weeks working in a cafe environment, trainees are awarded an AQA Unit Award Scheme (UAS) Working in a Cafe: Basic Barista Skills certificate.

Shine isn’t just about making great coffee—it’s about creating new beginnings, growing confidence and brewing a brighter future.

With grateful thanks to The Clothworkers Foundation for funding the equipment to make our skills training programme possible and to Arise Coffee Roasters for providing our coffee beans.
