The Riverfront Coffee House and Ristretto raise cash for Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children

The Riverfront Coffee House, Omagh and Ristretto Coffee Roasters, Banbridge recently teamed up to raise cash for the Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children. The week long fundraising campaign involved Ristretto contributing £1 for every cup of coffee sold alongside activities and giveaways run by The Riverfront Coffee House such as raffles. The atmosphere at The Riverfront Coffee House is always very warm and inviting but there was an added air of excitement during the week as customers gave so generously for this very worthy cause.

“We were overwhelmed by the generosity and support from our customers particularly in the current climate,” says Joan, who owns The Riverfront Coffee House.

The Riverfront Coffee House have a great reputation for their freshly prepared food and their home baking is awsome! Using Ristretto’s award winning espresso blend The Riverfront Coffee House attracts coffee enthusiasts from far and wide.

Ristretto Coffee Roasters who are based in Banbridge have partnered with the Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children to help raise funds for children and young people who are living with cancer and their families.

"I have been blessed with three healthy children and I count it a privilege if in some small way I can help bring joy to the lives of other children and their parents”, says Gregg Radcliffe, who owns Ristretto along with Mark Anderson.

Ristretto freshly roast and supply speciality coffee and espresso machine equipment to the finest establishments such as The Riverfront Coffee House with a great emphasis on customer support!

“I spent a few hours at The Riverfront Coffee House during the event helping the staff make coffee. It was so encouraging to see everyone willing to support this charity and at the same time really enjoying themselves”, continues Gregg.

In total The Riverfront Coffee House and Ristretto raised £1000 for the Northern Ireland Cancer Fund for Children. Joan and Gregg would like to thank everyone who was involved in making this event so successful.
