Solace Coffee is a social enterprise empowering young people at risk of prison through coffee and hospitality training.

02/03/2026

In February, Kylie and Roz completed their Mental Health First Aider training.

A huge thank you to Kelly’s Cause for welcoming us onto the course. This training will help us better support the young people we work with in custody and the community, and strengthen our wider team with shared tools and understanding.

Another important step forward for Solace.

Happy birthday Myles!

Thanks for being the driving force behind our community, retail and operations. Thanks for also being the best mate anyone could have. I appreciate you. Also, cheers for surviving all my meltdowns since we launched Solace.

But enough of this soppy stuff — have a great day! Let’s give Myles some birthday love 💃

We’re growing our team.

We’re looking for an In-Custody Employability & Skills Trainer to join Solace and work alongside people in custody as they prepare for life beyond prison.

This role is about more than employability. It’s about trust, consistency, and creating spaces where people feel seen, supported and capable of change. You’ll deliver practical skills sessions, build confidence, and support individuals to take meaningful steps towards training, work and a positive future.

If you believe in second chances, value lived experience, and want to be part of a small team doing work that truly matters — we’d love to hear from you.

✨NEW PARTNERSHIP✨

We’re proud to welcome The Self Worth Therapist, Alicia Frimley, as a partner.

Alicia is a BABCP-accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist who will be working with Solace to deliver trauma-informed workshops within custodial settings, alongside support for people in the community. Her approach is grounded in psychological safety, dignity and practical tools that support emotional regulation and deeper self-understanding in challenging environments.

This partnership strongly aligns with our mission at Solace — creating spaces where people feel seen, supported and equipped with tools that genuinely help, both inside custody and beyond the gate.

There’s also a full-circle story here. Alicia and Kylie worked together in Perth when she was on her working holiday visa. Years later, coming back together with a shared purpose and values that matter.

We’re genuinely excited about what this partnership will bring and the impact it will have for the people we serve.

Welcome, Alicia ❤️

✨ Meet the Team ✨
Say hello to Roz – coffee lover, people-helper, and all-round good vibe bringer.

Roz has been in the coffee world for 13 years, serving great brews to folks in Cardiff, London and now Bristol. For the past 5 years, she’s been training up new baristas, sharing her skills, tips, and genuine love for great coffee.

Roz works as an In-Custody Employability and Skills Trainer, helping people build confidence, learn new skills and find their feet again. She brings the same warmth and encouragement to that work as she does to every training session.

Outside of all that? You’ll probably find her crocheting something colourful or having a good chat with her cat (who definitely has strong opinions).
