Frontline Coffee raise over £6,000 for the RNLI with the ‘Morning Rescue’ blend

Frontline Coffee was set up by Matt Broxton and Tom Taylor in 2018 and took off during the UK national lockdown in March.

Their mission is to raise money for frontline charities and this summer the organisation made its first donation of £6,087 to the RNLI – whose volunteer crews have remained on call 24/7 throughout the pandemic.

Matt and Tom hand-picked the coffee beans to match the exact taste the pair were looking for and it is now manufactured on a grand scale in the south west of England.

The organisation even introduced its own special blend for the RNLI called ‘Morning Rescue’, described as a classic Italian espresso taste offering a chocolate aftertaste.

From lifeguard patrols on beaches to responding to fishing vessels in distress at sea, donations power the charity’s lifesaving service. When the public purchase Frontline Coffee’s Morning Rescue blend, £3.00 per 500g bag is donated.

Ellie Walker, RNLI Community Manager, said:

‘Our ability to fundraise has been hit in these challenging times, during lockdown our RNLI shops had to close and our usual face-to-face fundraising and events couldn’t take place.

‘We are so grateful to have had the support of Frontline Coffee over the past year, and want to say thank you to the public who help save lives by sitting down to a cup of their ‘Morning Rescue’ coffee.’
