Hello
I wanted to let all Manchester-based bakers know about a lovely fundraising Bake Off being planned for this Friday.
Duerr?s, the jam makers, has teamed up with Key 103′s Cash for Kids Day to raise £100,000 for Wythenshawe (UHSM) Hospital Outpatients Department!
The aim is to transform a concrete wasteland into a garden area to be used by 8,000 children. And Duerr's want to help in two ways!
- Register for free jam
As passionate bakers Duerr?s is encouraging as many people as possible to host a cake sale or coffee morning on 26th April to raise vital cash. To lend a hand, Duerr?s will provide the first 200 companies, schools or individuals, who register their details via a form on Duerr's website (click the Operations Outpatients button on the home page).
The jars can then be collected from either Key 103′s offices [Key 103, Castlequay, Castlefield, Manchester M15 4PR] or Duerr?s reception [Floats Rd, Roundthorn Industrial Estate, Wythenshawe, Manchester M23 9DR] between Monday 22nd to Thursday 25th April. One of the lovely team at Key 103 will give you a call to arrange a pick-up time.
- Tweet your pics to win £100 donation
Secondly Duerr's will donate financially. Tweet a photo of your bakes to @duerrs1881 using the hashtag #cashforkidsbakeoff and the best entry will be given £100 from Duerr's to add to their final fundraising tally. The winner will be announced on 26th April. T&Cs on Duerr's website.
All that?s left is that fundraisers across Manchester hold a cake sale packed full of firm bottoms and sticky moments that do the patron saint of baking ? Mary Berry ? proud. Happy baking!
