As part of SSAFA Forces Help Week (4-10 October), you are invited to take part in the Big Brew Up, The Big Breakfast or the Big Dine In. These involve organising a tea party, breakfast or dinner and using it as an excuse to have some fun, practice your cooking and hosting skills and raise money for a great cause. Why not organise a tea party or a meal and make it a fund raising activity. Ask parents to join you for a few minutes before the end of your section meeting and serve them a cup of tea for a donation to SSAFA Forces Help. more
