The Specialty Coffee Association United Kingdom Chapter represents the UK based members of the Specialty Coffee Association.
The primary aim of the SCA UK is to organise and run the UK national coffee championships, which lead into the World Championships, and to spread the knowledge of great coffee!
The SCA UK chapter is also about fun and friendship! The competitions are not only a great way to learn but also about meeting other people in the UK's ever-growing coffee community and forging great new friendships and contacts.
The SCA UK chapter is an association with a growing number of members - people like you, who are looking for coffee excellence. Our members come from all areas of the coffee industry, from machine manufacturers to roasters, cafe owners and ancillary suppliers.
The SCA UK Chapter is run by volunteers: an elected committee and a non-elected sub-committee.

Meet your new SCA UK Committee
We’re Dave, Jon, Zoe and Grace, and we’re really pleased to be getting started.
We’ve spent the first few weeks getting to know the chapter, understanding where things stand and getting stuck into some immediate priorities, including UKBC 2027.
We’ve also been thinking about what SCA UK should offer the wider UK coffee community and how we want to work as a committee.
Our mission statements are built around four principles: transparency, collaboration, community and honesty.
We want to be open about what we’re doing, work with the community, create opportunities beyond competitions and be honest about the things we don’t have all the answers to yet.
There’s a lot to get moving, and we’re looking forward to bringing you along with us.
Our next post will be an update on UKBC 2027, including what we know, what we’re working on and what it means if you’re thinking about competing.
