Afternoon tea event for local cancer charity

We’re hosting a special festive afternoon cream tea on Saturday 12th December to raise money for local charity Breast Friends.

The team at our Midlands-store will be hosting the event from 2pm to 4pm in Edward’s Restaurant, where guests can enjoy a delicious traditional cream tea while listening to Christmas carols performed by the Sutton Coldfield Chamber Choir. Tickets for the event are £12.50 each with all proceeds going to the charity.

Breast Friends, a support group based at Good Hope Hospital in Sutton Coldfield, will also be celebrating its 20th anniversary at the event. The Charity is run by volunteers who have all been diagnosed with breast cancer and aims to help local women with cancer through a difficult time by offering friendship, support, emotional and practical help.

Vanessa Hoe, marketing director at Cookes Furniture, said: "We are really looking forward to hosting this event for Breast Friends and admire all of the wonderful work they do for people in the West Midlands affected by breast cancer. As a family business, we are very passionate about supporting the local community and enjoy working with local charities. We are expecting a great turnout for this event to get us into the Christmas spirit and hope to raise a nice sum of money for this great charity".

For further information about tickets for this event please contact Cookes Furniture on 0121 250 5050 or visit the Breast Friends website at www.breastfriends.org.uk.
