Dear supporters,

Thank you for every signature, share, and show of support. Together, we’ve shown how much these cafés matter.

Now, we’re taking the next big step. To give our campaign lasting strength and a proper voice, we’ve registered as a Community Interest Company (CIC) – a type of social enterprise called “Real Cafés Campaign CIC.”

This means we’re not just a petition anymore. We’re a democratic, community-owned organisation that can fund our fight, make decisions together, and stand up to the City of London with real legal and people power. 

Would you like to be more involved?
If you’d like to become a member, give us ideas on the direction of the campaign, and help fund our ongoing legal and campaigning costs, please email us at:

realcafescampaign@gmail.com

Let us know you’re interested in joining. We’ll be in touch soon with details on how to officially become a member.

This is about turning signatures into action. Let’s build this together.

With thanks,
The Real Cafés Campaign
