Tea n' More

Tea n More is our name for a tea party or coffee morning. You may choose a special theme or venue but what’s important is you get your favourite people together, catch up and raise vital funds to help One in Four.

Planning Your Event

Choose a date that doesn’t clash with events in your community. Choose your venue: at home, in a local community centre or even at work. Get your community involved – are there any local groups who may want to run a stall or help in some way? Don’t forget not everyone likes coffee or tea include cold drinks and maybe soft drink options for your younger guests. Ask your local supermarket or bakery if they would donate some cakes to help keep your expenses down.Volunteers: make sure you have helpers to set up, to serve the coffee and to bake some cakes!

Help with Fundraising

Ask for a donation for drinks and food. Add some extra activities: have a tasting competition and ask your friends to vote for their favourite cake, hold a quiz, or hold a jumble sale, clothes swap or raffle. Make sure you tell us about it and we can send you out some materials to brand your event.

Spread the Word

Advertise your coffee morning at work, social clubs and local businesses using our charity branded posters. Speak to your local groups to see if anyone is interested in attending (for example religious groups, sports groups, volunteer groups or toddler groups).After the event send a quick email or text to anyone who helped you straight after your coffee morning to thank them for helping. Get your event in any local papers or newsletters. Send a press release with a photo and final total.

Send in your donations to one in Four as soon as possible after the event and let everyone know how much was raised.
