As the war in Ukraine continues, a humanitarian crisis is unfolding. BBC News looks at our project, TRAMPOLINE, that helps refugees get back on their feet through hospitality training and employment, enabling them to come off benefits and to get their lives back. #refugeesupport #training #employment #ukrainecrisis

Fairtrade is more than a certification—it's a movement ensuring fair wages, sustainable livelihoods, and decent working conditions. Our focus on ethical sourcing supports responsible supply chains that respect both people and the planet. We are committed to these values, ensuring fair wages and sustainable livelihoods for small-scale farmers while promoting environmental responsibility. Choosing NEMI Teas means supporting economic fairness, environmental sustainability, and social responsibility. 🍵 #Fairtrade #EthicalSourcing #Sustainability

This Plastic Free July, let's take meaningful steps to reduce our plastic consumption and embrace sustainable alternatives. Here’s what we do to make our products more environmentally friendly: o Our teabags are made of 100% non-GMO sugarcane which is biodegradable and more environmentally friendly. o Our external packaging is made of NatureFlex™, a family of bio-based and compostable films used for flexible packaging. By choosing sustainable options like these, we significantly reduce our plastic footprint and inspire others to do the same. #PlasticFreeJuly #Sustainability #Environment #EcoFriendly

Yesterday we had the pleasure of attending a hospitality showcase hosted by ISS Facility Services UK at the Barclays offices in Canary Wharf, London. We brewed our signature red berry iced tea for the event - which is the perfect summer drink! As you know, we pride ourselves on offering fair trade and organic teas that are sustainably sourced. It was great to be able to continue sharing our message and showcase our dedication to ethical practices and environmental stewardship. Thank you to everyone who joined us and to the Barclays team for having us. #sustainable #popupevent #teatasting #hospitality

Did you know that our teas are produced here in the UK? Everything is made at our solar-powered factory in Somerset, which in the summer months puts more power back into the National Grid than we use. We even assemble all our tea bag materials on site, reducing the distance travelled and ensuring quality control. So, the next time you're brewing one of our teas, enjoy knowing that you’ve chosen a greener option. #sustainability #organictea #socialimpact

The UK is home to 131,000 social enterprises, each contributing to positive social change and promoting a more ethical approach to business, placing people and the planet at the forefront. We are honoured to be recognised in the Top 100 for the 6th consecutive year! Grateful for the ongoing support from NatWest NatWest Social & Community Capital (registered charity number: 1079626) and Pioneers Post. #seuk #SE100 #top100socialenterprises #impact

How can you integrate into the British society when no-one will give you a job, just because you haven’t had a previous job in the UK and you don't have a referee that you can provide in order to get that job? HSBC cracked a similar dilemma with their “No Fixed Address” service in the UK, helping people without a home get access to services that rely on having an address (like opening a bank account). At NEMI Teas, we help refugees break their own employment impasse by offering them hospitality training, employment & reference, helping them into the next stage of their careers. Come visit our café in Angel, TRAMPOLINE Cafe, and see how we are tackling this issue. https://lnkd.in/giHCbKUn https://lnkd.in/ehSc4ud #helpingothers #socialenterprise #refugees

Last week the London-based NEMI Teas team travelled down to Somerset to visit our production facility. It was great to be back on the production floor and chat with our colleagues about the latest sustainable initiatives being implemented ranging from the installation of solar panels to making our own compostable teabag material on site as we strive to have as little environmental burden as we can. Finally the team also got involved in the production of our favorite summer blend - Red Berry! #sustainability #teafactory #organic #fairtrade
