On the 29th June 2020 we'd raised £7,932 with 197 supporters in 56 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.
Perky Blenders is about local. We first started as a humble little coffee cart outside St James’ Street station, aiming to make good coffee accessible to the V60 veterans and the baby(chino) drinkers of Waltham Forest alike. And even though we now have four cafes in the borough, and supply to customers far beyond, we’re still proud of our local community. Our signature blend is even named after our home borough.
But these are unprecedented times – for Waltham Forest as well as the world. Our Magistrates location is closed, our Leytonstone and Walthamstow station locations are seeing minimal customers, and Project 660 has been rerouted to supplying essentials and supporting other local businesses. We have retained staff and given them the hours they need, but it’s not easy. That’s why we’re looking to our local heroes for help.

We miss our customers. That’s why we’re launching a loyalty scheme in which they can become a proper part of the Perky Blenders family by signing up for one of our new, tiered memberships. Not only will this help us in our hour of need, but it’ll allow you to enjoy any number of Perky perks – including paying forward your coffee for the rest of the year. By contributing, you'll help us raise money towards our £45,000 target (less than our April deficit in revenue). That means that, before we know it, we’ll be able to share a brew at one of our locations again.
Join the Perky Blenders gang with one of these membership tiers, all available at our brick and mortar sites when all this blows over. Choose your rank and we'll accept your contribution to join our family.
All of the above will start from 1st July 2020. You will be contacted with further details in due course. Thanks for all your help, from everyone at Team PB x
