​

Purplespoon is a values-led catering and events organisation delivering high-quality food experiences with a strong social purpose — and a proud part of the YMCA Dulverton Group family.

As a charity-owned social enterprise, we believe food can do more than feed guests: it can bring people together, build confidence and change lives. From bespoke events and pop-ups to café operations and community food projects, we serve private, corporate and community clients across the South West, combining professional catering standards with a genuine commitment to social impact.

We invest in our people through comprehensive training, mentoring and real-world experience, actively supporting those who face barriers to employment. Through resettlement programmes and the Disability Confident Scheme, we create meaningful pathways that open doors.

Our community commitment extends beyond the plate. Through our pay-it-forward scheme, community meal freezers and monthly YMCA café events, we support those experiencing homelessness and foster cultural exchange — bringing together refugees, migrants and local residents in spaces built on understanding and celebration.

Everything we do is guided by the values of YMCA Dulverton Group: valuing every individual, giving our best, caring deeply, finding creative solutions, and communicating with openness and authenticity.

Rooted in sustainability — from local sourcing to eco-friendly packaging — and backed by the YMCA, Purplespoon continues to grow as a community-focused enterprise, creating lasting positive change across Somerset, one connection at a time
