A Tea Party is any simple get-together with tea, coffee or treats. It can be a coffee morning, a bake sale, an afternoon tea or even a teddy bears’ picnic. If it brings people together to chat, connect and give, it counts.
Set up a fundraising page or pop a collection tin on the table and you’ll be surprised how quickly donations grow as people catch up.

We had bakers ranging from 10 to 83 years old and we raised just shy of £1,400!
