Time 4 Tea

 

It's time to dust off your teapot and grab your favourite recipe book! Time 4 Tea, is a fun and easy way to raise vital funds for our Search 4 a Vaccine Campaign.

This is a great opportunity to gather your friends, family or colleagues for a tea break, tea party, high tea, afternoon tea or even a tea dance! Remember that every penny raised through Time 4 Tea will be making a difference in the fight to find a vaccine to eradicate all forms of meningitis and save thousands of lives in the future.

This year, celebrity TV cook and cookery writer Mary Berry is supporting the event and urging people to brew and bake this autumn.  Mary has kindly provided us with her favourite cake recipe - Ginger and Treacle Spiced Traybake - which you will receive in your fundraising pack. You can find out more in our Time 4 Tea press release. You can also find out more about Mary on her website www.maryberry.co.uk (external link).

With Chrismas fast approaching, Mary Berry has also kindly donated her ‘Fast Mincemeat Christmas Cake’ recipe to encourage everyone to support our lifesaving research. Why not host a Christmas-themed Time 4 Tea with Chrismas cake, mince pies and mulled wine?

Plan your tea party

Autumn is the season to put the kettle on, get cooking, invite friends round and make money for Meningitis UK. Why not have a bake-off, a quiz or dress-up for a Mad Hatter's Tea Party? Or you could simply have a tea break at work or get the kids together for a teddy bears' picnic in the park.

Our fundraising pack will provide you with plenty of tips and ideas - why not also try out one of our delicious cake recipe ideas?

We would like to say a big thank you to Twinings for providing us with some special tea samples and Country Cupcakes for supplying us with some delicious recipes.
