Sophie Forsyth is to host a Strawberry Tea party to help women facing breast cancer

On 28 June 2014 at 3pm, Sophie Forsyth, 25, from Edinburgh will host a Strawberry Tea party at Sofi’s Bar for Breast Cancer Care – the only UK-wide specialist support charity.

Sophie is holding a Strawberry Tea to raise money for Breast Cancer Care, combining a love of baking and event organising.

Sophie, who works as an Operations Executive at Abbey Tours Scotland says: “I’m really excited to hold my first public event, selling cakes to raise money for such a deserving charity. Not only is it a bake sale but there will be a variety of prizes to win, including complimentary Camera Obscura tickets!”

Georgie Burchell, Strawberry Tea fundraising officer at Breast Cancer Care added: “We’re so grateful to Sophie for holding a Strawberry Tea in aid of Breast Cancer Care. We rely on supporters like her to ensure we can continue to provide our vital emotional support network for free. We help thousands of people find a way to live with, through and beyond breast cancer. With one in eight women developing breast cancer in their lifetime, there has never been such an urgent need for our support services.”

Breast Cancer Care’s Strawberry Tea campaign, which is sponsored by fine bone china teaware specialist Royal Albert, runs from 1 June – 31 August. And it doesn’t matter if you raise £20 or £200 – all funds raised help provide vital support.
