Get Cake & a Cuppa ready
I held my Cake & a Cuppa event at work, and the support was incredible. It wasn’t just about raising awareness of my symptoms—it also brought my colleagues together over cake and tea! The best part? My company matched the funds we raised, bringing the grand total to £2,220!
