St George's Day Bake and Brew

St George's Day is the perfect day to make a difference for children. All you need to do is pop on your pinny and bake some of your favourite and most delicious cakes. Then sell them to friends, colleagues and family members.

St George's Day, traditionally falls on the 23rd April each year. However, due to the overlap with Easter weekend this year, The Church of England's rules mean that St George's Day has moved to May Day, the 2nd May. However, you can hold a Bake and Brew party at any time that suits you. You could even get baking on 29 April - the Royal wedding!

The money you raise will help across all areas of our work. Here are a few examples of what it could be spent on:

• £3 for coffee and a cake could help train someone to listen to a victim of bullying in school
• £10 could pay for a school starter pack for a refugee child, providing basic school equipment
• £100 would allow 10 young carers to get a break from their responsibilities and enjoy themselves at the young carers festival
• £250 pays for 15 disabled children to have a day out at the seaside.

The money you raise could help children like Anisha, 11, who cares for her Mum who is seriously ill.
