Pick up a FREE coffee when you pay with a poem!

Free coffee

If you fancy a FREE hot drink, then get your thinking caps on and writing quills out and pay for a coffee with just a poem!

The giveaway is to mark World Poetry Day and more than a dozen venues across the capital have signed up to give away cuppas.

The idea is the brainchild of Brixton poet and story teller Telixia Inico who’s partnered up with anti-illiteracy charity Worldreader and Viennese coffee brand Julius Meinl.

Inico says: “Reading and poetry has helped me to express myself and overcome barriers in my life so I hopeI can empower others to uncover the power of words and do the same.”

Rest assured, you don’t need to be Keats, Shelley or Betjeman to earn your cup of caffeine. Just speak from the heart and you’ll earn your reward! “I’m a poet and I know it!”
