Holy Fool is a specialty coffee company that provides training for prison leavers and those at risk of reoffending.
Having begun in 2022 as a coffee van serving coffee from a converted Mitsubishi Carry to the villages of Dartmoor, our long term goal was to see men and women drawn into employment and mentorship. After a fun couple of years on the road, we came to realise that this model wasn’t sustainable enough to ensure a safe, consistent place for men and women to rehabilitate.
Courses
Therefore, in Autumn 2024 Holy Fool will be running its first ever training programme in a fixed location on the quayside in Exeter. The course will teach participants a broad spectrum of technical skills including an introduction to brewing espresso, dialling in and steaming milk. Working alongside course leaders, students will also receive hospitality experience by attending local events in Exeter to serve coffee.
Enrolment for this course is now open. If you would like to apply please fill in this form, we will then get in touch with you. If you’d like more information on the course please email becky@stbasils.church.
Holy Fool is a Redemptive Enterprise run by St Basil’s church, Devon.
