Local furniture retailer, Cookes Furniture, will host an elegant afternoon tea to help raise vital funds for Sutton Coldfield charity, The Cancer Support Centre, it has been announced.
The Midlands-based business is inviting locals to join them for an afternoon of cakes, sandwiches, tea, coffee and fizz for just £12, with all proceeds on the day going directly to the charity.
There will also be a whole host of fantastic raffle prizes to be won.
Taking place at 2.30pm on Thursday 18 October, the afternoon will be held in Edwards café bar located within Cookes Furniture store.
Having supported the charity for over eight years and raised in excess of £8,000, organisers hope next month’s event will top the £1,000 raised at the afternoon tea held earlier this year.
The store has also helped raised money for the centre by completing the 100-mile Velo Birmingham cycle challenge and hosting a Gala Evening.
Vanessa Hoe, Marketing Director at Cookes Furniture, said: “We are incredibly passionate about supporting local charities, and are proud to have raised significant funds for The Cancer Support Centre over the past eight years.
“Our afternoon teas always prove to be popular with the community, and we hope that the event will continue to further boost our fundraising efforts this year. With a whole host of incredible raffle prizes to be won and lots of cake, we are very much looking forward to welcoming visitors to help support this worthy cause,” she added.
