Oxford United are proud to announce the launch of Can We Talk? Coffee, a unique blend created to spark conversation, promote mental wellbeing, and support vital mental health initiatives across Oxfordshire.
So much more than just a cup of coffee, Can We Talk? Coffee is named after the Club’s suicide prevention and mental health awareness campaign. Developed alongside Baton of Hope, the Joey Beauchamp Foundation, and Oxfordshire Mind, the campaign aims to break down stigma, encourage open dialogue, and remind people of the power of asking one simple but profound question: Can We Talk?
In collaboration with Missing Bean Coffee Roasters, Can We Talk? Coffee is available for just £11 per 250g bag, with the price chosen to commemorate the number Joey famously wore for the Club. 100% of the profits from every sale, whether purchased at Missing Bean outlets and cafés or through Oxford United’s official channels, will be donated directly to the Joey Beauchamp Foundation, which supports vital mental health work in Oxfordshire in memory of the Oxford United legend.
Stuart Crook at the Joey Beauchamp Foundation said: “Taking a moment to pause, reflect ,and connect with a cup of coffee can be the first step toward a meaningful conversation - Can We Talk? This coffee is another gentle reminder that checking in with ourselves and those around us matters.
“Our hope is that people use this as an opportunity to talk more openly about mental health and suicide prevention, using the resources and training available.”
Ryan Maher, Head of Media & PR at Oxford United, said: “What started as a conversation around mental health and suicide prevention at Oxford United has grown into something truly meaningful. Can We Talk? is about breaking down barriers and saving lives, and this coffee is the next chapter in that journey.
“It’s more than just a coffee, it’s a conversation starter, and a reminder to look out for one another. It’s about turning small moments into lasting impact and showing that by asking one simple question, we can change and save lives.”
The Club’s first-ever coffee encourages fans and the wider community to brew a cup, slow down, and make space for meaningful conversations. Whether at home, in the office, or among friends, Can We Talk? Coffee is a small gesture that supports a larger aim of making mental health a priority for everyone.
Together, we can start conversations that save lives.
Bags of whole beans of Can We Talk? Coffee are available now on a pre-order basis and can be purchased directly from OUFCShop.co.uk.*
If you’d prefer a different grind option, this will be available via Missing Bean’s online store in due course.
To support the launch of Can We Talk? Coffee, we have accompanying online exclusive products including a bespoke mug, travel flask, and coasters.
Similar to the coffee, the Club will make a donation from every sale to the Joey Beauchamp Foundation.
