"At CoppaFeel! the ways of working are there to aid working, not force it. You're able to work in the way that best suits your productivity and needs - leading to more focused and smart working. The CoppaFeel! working culture is one which is genuinely supportive and is developed by the employees , for the employees."

Our Founders

CoppaFeel! was founded in 2009 by twin sisters Kris and Maren Hallenga – after Kris was diagnosed with secondary breast cancer at the age of 23. Since then we’ve grown from a determined duo based in Kris and Maren’s living room to a full team housed at Boob Towers in South London. This lot are obsessed with boobs, but for a very good reason.

"The flexibility of CoppaFeel!'s hybrid way of working has been a breath of fresh air for my mental health. Waking up in the morning knowing I don't have to be in work for a specific time instantly calms my anxiety and I'm ready to face the day."
