About Us
Join the Chocolution is a new and evolving community initiative, forming and developing to become a UK Community Interest Company (CIC).
Our mission is to elevate the voice of cocoa-growing communities and build a people-powered movement for change in chocolate. We use chocolate as a tool β a lens β to explore and highlight issues of injustice, inequality, and environmental harm.
Because chocolate is something so many people love deeply, it becomes a powerful entry point: If we can create meaningful change in chocolate, what else might be possible?
Our Core Commitments
π Build a collaborative and inclusive community
π’ Amplify cocoa-growing community voices and leadership
π± Champion environmental and social justice in chocolate
β Stand against trafficking, slavery, and forced labour
π¨ Use creative, accessible formats to engage all ages and backgrounds
π‘ Use chocolate to spark deeper conversations about systems, power, and connection
What We Do
Our work includes:
Festivals and Forums β e.g. Norwich Chocolate Festival & Forum, combining public engagement, discovery, and critical dialogue
Community Events β chocolate dinners, storytelling evenings, and relaxed social events like Choc n Chat and Choc n Chill
Public Education β talks, workshops, and activities exploring the cocoa supply chain, history, flavour, and justice
Sector Engagement β working with hospitality and small business owners to improve responsible sourcing and deepen understanding
Movement Building β launching a UK-wide Chocolution Membership for individuals and organisations ready to take part in change
We are currently inviting UK-based Non-Executive Directors, volunteers, and collaborators to join us as we grow this movement together.
