Hot Drinks Machines can serve more than just a coffee or hot chocolate, such is the level of their flexibility. Practical tabletop dispensers such as the reliable Flavia 500 are also called into action around lunch time, when hungry employees crave a delicious mug of steaming soup.

Unfortunately, as is the way with this country, good weather comes with more hope than expectation, though it never hurts to be prepared for the warmer conditions.
We at Coinadrink can help. If you have read our blog posts in recent weeks, the importance of hydration is something that should never be ignored, and we should always strive to drink enough water on a regular basis. When you become thirsty, its concerning to know that you have already lost 1% of your bodily fluids, and seeing as water is needed to keep our brain active and focused, dehydration can especially have a detrimental effect in the workplace.

Coinadrink have been partnering with Promise Dreams for four years now, committed to helping terminally ill children make their dreams a reality. Some of the conditions these children have are truly heart-breaking, and the charity just wants to give them and their families some joy and positivity in what is a very difficult time.
Rhyan and Rhys, aged eight and five, suffer with the awful condition of Cystic Fibrosis, meaning extensive hospital appointments, medication and physio rob the boys of the childhood they deserve. As if that wasn’t bad enough, each lad has their own additional life limiting condition…

Hydration with style…the B5 cooler.
Here’s a fact for you; if you’re not drinking enough water, your body is secretly suffering without you really knowing about it.
It’s quite often the case in children and teenagers, whose action packed, entertaining lifestyles remarkably can’t make room for regular hydration.

As a general rule, that’s 3 litres for men and 2.2 litres for women on a daily basis.

2017 marks a significant milestone for Coinadrink.
On 2 February, we’ll be celebrating our 55th birthday and even as we’ve been planning how we’ll celebrate and commemorate this auspicious event, my mind has been taking me back to the world as it was when first we opened for business.
Much as I’d like to think otherwise, the foundation of Coinadrink doesn’t quite make it into the list of 1962’s Top Ten events! We didn’t realise it at the time, but 1962 was an eventful year; one which would have an enduring impact on the world.
When we opened for business, Harold Macmillan was PM and according to him, ‘we’d never had it so good’. I suppose he had a point: inflation was low, at just 1.1% and pretty much everybody was in work. The average price of a house was £2,670 – although such a sum would have bought you something pretty impressive in Walsall – and the average wage was £799 a year. A pint of milk cost 1/4d (that’s 6.5p in ‘new’ money!) and a pint in the pub would set you back 2/4d, (11.5p).
