Calling all Great British Bake off fans!

I’ve just received confirmation that Gateshead Leisure Centre will allow us to have a cake sale next Tuesday night (22nd Nov) from 6:00pm onwards to help us raise funds for next weekend.

So we need cakes, lots and lots of cakes, any cakes we’re not fussy – yes Mr Brown even your pineapple upside down cake would be welcomed!!

It would be really fantastic if every family could make a contribution. We also need volunteers to help out on the stand and lots of people to buy and eat lots of cake so please do pop along.

If you’re happy to help out can you please let me know asap.

Thanks so much

Jill
