Bake a cake for campaign
10.02.10
LAST February The Gazette newspaper group in South Gloucestershire launched a campaign with Meningitis UK to help find a vaccine against the most common strain of the disease - meningitis group B.
The campaign aims to raise £40,000 by the end of this month. This amount will fund the work of a vaccine researcher for a whole year.
Since the launch of the campaign local people have been pledging their support and doing their bit to help raise the cash. The campaign has raised £31,000 so far.
In a final push to raise money for the campaign, the Gazette is appealing to all its readers to get cooking and take part in a giant bake sale.
Staff at the Gazette will be baking cakes to sell in the office and joining the campaign will be staff at South Gloucestershire Council, who have volunteered to hold bake sales at all the authority's offices in the district.
