Big Chocolate Tea takes place from 21st April to 1st May, and raises funds to help The Sick Children’s Trust support over 4,000 families with critically ill children. It asks people to host their own chocolate-themed tea party, cake sale or bake-off in the last week of April 2017 – or at a time to suit them during the year.
 

British Red Cross’s HumaniTea

The British Red Cross’s HumaniTea raises funds to help it support more people on their release from hospital. Every week the charity’s staff and volunteers visit hundreds of people in the UK who have recently been discharged from hospital to help them regain their confidence to live independently once again. It is asking people to host a HumaniTea party and ask guests to give a donation for the charity.
 

Sobell House Come 4 Tea

Sobell House asks people to hold a Come 4 Tea event. It helps around 3000 people across Oxfordshire a year, and needs to raise £1.4million each year to continue supporting people. Money raised through Come 4 tea events will help it continue.
 

Trussell Trust Tea for Trussell

Trussell Trust is asking people to hold a Tea for Trussell at home with friends or in their lunch hour with work colleagues, with funds raised going to help the charity support more people struggling with hunger and poverty.
