Summer is fast approaching and clubs from Scotland to Cornwall have already signed up to support Tea by the Sea and raise funds for Sail 4 Cancer, but it’s not too late to add your event and raise funds to help people living with cancer.
Summer is fast approaching and clubs from Scotland to Cornwall have already signed up to support Tea by the Sea and raise funds for Sail 4 Cancer, but it’s not too late to add your event and raise funds to help people living with cancer.
Tea by the Sea is an opportunity for you to hold a tea party at any venue you like and on any day that suits you during the month of May! It could be at your sailing club, your office, your local school or even your own home; on a weekday or a weekend. All that matters is raising funds and having some fun at the same time.
There’s been a huge amount of interest from all over the country, with many events planned by the coast, but a good number being held inland as well, proving that you don’t need to be at the seaside to host a Tea by the Sea! Registered events include the Royal Southern Yacht Club, Bough Beech Sailing Club, Royal London Yacht Club, Emsworth Slipper, Ullswater Yacht Club, St Andrew’s Sailing Club and many more.
Sailing clubs are using Tea by the Sea as a way of launching their summer season, attracting new members and welcoming back existing ones. Fun races, fancy dress, nautical quizzes, cake stalls and try sailing opportunities; these are just some of the ideas dreamt up by the different clubs. Some individuals however are choosing a more simple approach: just a nice civilized afternoon tea in their back garden for a few friends.
It’s not too late for you to hold a tea party in aid of Sail 4 Cancer. If you are interested then visit www.sail4cancer.org for more information, contact ehuddert@sail4cancer.org or call on 0845 408 1849.
So warm up the tea pot, crack open the biscuit tin and invite your friends, club members, work colleagues or anyone else you can think of!
