We were delighted to attend the launch event at Oxford Foyer this morning, celebrating the launch of the new mobile clothing van from Thread Together 🚐👕

Thread together visits crisis accommodation services, community centres, disaster affected communities and regional and remote towns ensuring people in need can access quality clothing with dignity.

55 Central’s Grow and Grind Social Enterprise was proud to be invited along to brew up some quality beverages for everyone attending ☕

🌱 Thank you to the Thread Together team for having us and for the important work you continue to do in supporting our community.

We hope everyone enjoyed the freshly brewed coffee!

What a fantastic day at this year’s Midland NAIDOC event, serving up delicious coffees for everyone to enjoy! ☕🤎🙌

We had some brilliant chats and loved sharing more about our mission to create positive change.

It was great having the 55 Central team out and about, connecting with the community and spreading the word about our services.

A huge thank you to Indigo Junction for the invitation and for continuing to support our social enterprise. This marks our third time at the NAIDOC event — and once again, it was organised and run beautifully. 👏

☕️ A Warm Start to the Day at Tom Fisher House ☀️

Our Grow and Grind coffee van was out bright and early this morning, serving up warm coffees and friendly smiles to individuals at Tom Fisher House.

It’s always a privilege to be able to offer a small comfort to start the morning right — a hot drink, a moment of connection, and a little boost for the road ahead.

Thanks to the team Vinnies WA — we’re always grateful to be part of these moments. 💛

☕ Our Grow and Grind team returned to Optus Stadium for the second year running to support the Vinnies Australia CEO Sleepout!

We were proud to serve over 200 quality coffee throughout the night and early morning to all the CEOs, staff and volunteers taking part—raising awareness and vital funds to support people experiencing homelessness.

It’s always an honor to be part of this impactful event. Thank you to Vinnies Australia for having us back again and Leaf Bean Machine for providing quality coffee beans 💙
