The Big Tea – choose your own date. Our Hospitals Charity is taking part in The Big Tea, which coincides with the 75th birthday of the NHS. Simply hold a tea party, afternoon tea, or cake sales and donate the proceeds to Our Hospitals Charity. We have a fundraising pack and toolkit for you, which even includes cake toppers which are the icing on the cake! One event is already organised at Northallerton Town Hall on July 5, so you could even go along and support this one. It’s as easy as buying a cup of tea and a slice of cake!
