 “We have been really inspired by the work that Change Please do. So often we just walk by people on the streets wondering how and why and don’t do anything more than that. This is a great way of helping and working towards solving a huge problem in our society today. I would like to pass on my thanks for the continued support from one of our industry leading and best know suppliers Automatic Retailing, who will be stocking the product and making it possible to deliver Change Pease Coffee direct to you.
