We're proud to strengthen our commitment to the local community through a new initiative that will see 10p from every cup sold in-store at our self-service coffee machines donated to the Guernsey Alzheimer’s Association. 

Ground & Co is more than just a coffee brand. It represents a sustainable, ethical approach to hot drinks. All Ground & Co coffee and hot chocolate is ethically sourced, with its beans supporting the Women in Coffee programme in Tanzania’s Mbozi district. The initiative empowers local widows and divorced women, giving them independence and economic opportunities through coffee farming. 

Customers can also enjoy their hot drinks responsibly, with Ground & Co beverages served in waste‑free, renewable cups designed to reduce environmental impact 

Through the wider Ground for Good partnership, we'll be donating 10p from every drink sold to local charities, ensuring the benefits stay within the community. In Guernsey, these donations will directly support the Guernsey Alzheimer’s Association, helping to fund vital services for islanders living with dementia and the families who care for them. 

From early March, Ground & Co coffee will be available at the self-service machines in the following stores: 

A spokesperson for the Guernsey Alzheimer’s Association said: 
“We are delighted to be chosen by the CI Coop for their new initiative with Ground & Co. This partnership shows a real commitment to our community and means so much to everyone at the Guernsey Alzheimer’s Association. Every cup purchased helps us continue providing vital support to islanders living with dementia and the families who care for them, reminding our community that no one has to face dementia alone.” 

Mark Cox, CEO at CI Coop said: 
“Supporting our community is at the heart of everything we do at the Coop. That’s why we’re so pleased to be able to combine our new coffee offer with meaningful fundraising for a charity that plays such an important role in island life. The work that the Guernsey Alzheimer’s Association does is truly incredible and if we can make even the smallest difference with this initiative, we’ll be very happy!” 

A spokesperson for Ground & Co added: 
“Ground & Co. is a fully integrated coffee-to-go brand rooted in sustainability, community, and exceptional quality. Created for today’s retailers and consumers, our ambition is to make a lasting impact on the market, underpinned by a strong commitment to accountability, affordability, transparency, and service. We’re incredibly proud to be introducing our coffee to the people of Guernsey and delighted to be partnering with Channel Islands Cooperative and Guernsey Alzheimer’s Association in support of such a meaningful cause.”
