SIR – The strawberry season has finally arrived and I’m writing to ask your readers to host a Strawberry Tea party for Breast Cancer Care – the only UK – wide specialist support charity. A Strawberry Tea is simple. Just spoil your guests with sweet treats, add some fragrant strawberries, keep the tea flowing and ask for a donation in return.
So I say “Let’s start baking for a strawberry tea!” Through holding a Strawberry Tea for Breast Cancer Care you can ensure that everyone facing this devastating disease has someone to turn to for information and support. Whatever you raise will make a huge difference – just £2 provides a headscarf for a woman who has lost her hair during treatment.
To register go to breastcancercare.org.uk/kettle anytime before August 31, or call 0870 164 9422.
Vanessa Redgrave CBE, Breast Cancer Care
