Celebrate 90 years of antibiotics with a Great British Tea Party
Gather friends and family to fundraise for Antibiotic Research UK and help ensure antibiotics continue saving lives for another 90 years and more!
How to organise your Great British Tea Party
Here are a few of the things you’ll need to think about to hold a successful tea party:
- Connector.
Venue
your home or garden, at work, a local community hall, a hospital – anywhere you can get permission, a few tables and chairs, and a kettle.
- Connector.
Fundraising
will you ask attendees for a donation to attend, or charge by-the-slice for your tasty creations? Take a look at our ‘Trouble’s brewing’ video further down this page to show attendees why their support is so important.
- Connector.
Cakes
will you make them all yourself, or ask people to bring along their greatest bake? Whatever you do, make sure you include allergen information.
- Connector.
