Remember this recent post about Making Time for Tea and raising money for The Eve Appeal and women's cancer? Inspired by my aunt, who two weeks ago had a hysterectomy, today was my turn to make time for tea.
It was wonderful, with many friends and their little ones turning out to support the cause - as well as eat cake and have a natter. The icing on the cake was when my aunt made a surprise appearance, which was really special.
Victoria sponge, lemon cake, coffee cake, chocolate cake... bunting and a raffle; it was great fun, and a reminder of how lucky I am to live where I do. The community spirit here is fabulous. THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU, at first count we raised over £70!
Also, thank you to those other friends of mine who have donated by sending funds through. Really kind of you! x
PS Look out for the next post, where I'll be writing a little bit about ovarian cancer, to help raise awareness of this, the 5th most common cancer in women.
