We are Equal Brewkery CIC

Our key aim is to make and sell great tasting bread and delicious beer.

We are different and the reason is that our brewers and bakers have learning disabilities.

Any surplus we make from the sale of bread and beer is reinvested into training and support in the Brewkery, and promoting employment opportunities for the participants.

All our Directors are local residents, based in Norwich, presenting a wide range of skills and experiences.

We  work to enrich and enable the lives of people who have learning disabilities and mental health problems.

We strive to build self-confidence and self-esteem, by instilling a sense of self-worth and confidence, alongside practical and transferable skills.

We are aiming to 

• Show that people with learning disabilities can participate fully, and contribute to a financially successful and sustainable business.

How will we do it

With the help of volunteers we will

• train people with learning disabilities to make brew, and bake bread, and sell in the Norwich and Norfolk.
• offer routes to employment for people with a learning disability in the beer and baking industry
• share our learning with other areas and groups who want to set-up and develop similar companies
• promote and publicise our work to help improve awareness and perceptions of people with learning disabilities

It will be

• a not-for profit enterprise established for social good
• train and promote employment for  people with little or no work experience.
• produce high quality products that taste good and have strong branding and appeal.
• share our learning about how brewing and baking can offer genuinely attractive jobs for people with learning disabilities.
