Simone is part of the team that founded The Lucy Foundation in 2014 and made the inaugural trip to Pluma Hidalgo in 2014/2015. With the team, she saw the opportunity for a social enterprise, built around supply of coffee, to make a meaningful and sustained impact on the lives of people with disabilities.
Simone draws on her background in food manufacturing to contribute to strategy, commercial and operational planning for The Lucy Foundation.

#DisabilityEmployment #disabilityrights #thebestcoffeeofalliscoffeeforall #filtercoffeenotpeopleA little about our lovely coffee suppliers, The Lucy Foundation. The Lucy Foundation are a disability empowerment organisation which manages an entire supply chain of coffee that is inclusive of people with disabilities from Mexico to Aotearoa.
Lovingly roasted by Able Coffee Collaborative, a disability inclusive roastery in Lower Hutt, we serve their signature Lucy blend. This includes three types of beans from Sumatra (Fair Trade/Organic), Ethiopia (Fair Trade/Organic) and Pluma Hidalgo Mexico. It makes for a full bodied coffee with a bit of kick!
We're proud to be partnering with these organisations to bring you your disability inclusive coffee, all the way from the farm to the friendly face serving you at Te Tuhi Café!

We're keepin' it clean! We've been using citrus fruits to make an ecological detergent to clean surfaces such as bench tops and floors. We also use it to wash dishes and clean the kitchen and bathroom at our TLF headquarters.
