The Trew Era Café is a non-profit coffeehouse established in March 2015 in Hackney, East London. The café, opened by comedian and activist Russell Brand, was funded by profits from his 2014 book, ''Revolution''. The café name and logo come from its location on the New Era estate and from Brand's web series, The Trews''.〔 ==Background==
During promotion for his book, Brand stated that he would use the profits to fund a social enterprise to employ former drug users in "abstinence-based recovery" and help them return to work. The café is located on the New Era council estate, whose residents faced eviction in 2014 when their rents were to be tripled by a new owner, Westbrook Partners. They campaigned against the proposed purchase by Westbrook, and Brand supported and drew attention to the residents' cause. In December 2014, Westbrook backed out and the approximately 100 families of the New Era estate ultimately were able to stay.〔
