At Busy Bee HQ we love to host an event! Following previous success in 2019, before the pandemic struck, we decided to host again our annual Coffee Morning all in support of the Charity Macmillan.
On the day we kicked off to a busy start with a queue of people eagerly waiting for their Bacon and Egg rolls at 10am! These proved to be a big hit on the day!
We also held our very own team Bake off that all the staff members got involved in. Thursday night was certainly a big night for everyone in the Busy Bee team creating their individual bakes including everything from a ‘fun-fetti’ cake, chocolate and coffee cupcakes to cheesy chilli jam straws and honey mustard sausage rolls, we certainly brought our baking talent out for this year! After the event finished, we all voted in the office and on Instagram resulting in our colleague Aimee winning with her Kinder Bueno Cookies and Fausta’s Victoria Sponge cake a close second.
In addition to the above we also held a raffle, after selling 120 tickets on the day, this was won by a local company around the corner from the Hive.
The team at Busy Bee were grateful to have had a few new faces visit us on Friday, they told us about their stories behind why they love the charity and how Macmillan has helped them both now and in the past. This just goes to show how so many people are touched by this incredible charity and really the contributions made to this cause will mean so much to so many.
We are delighted to announce that we have raised a total of £604 this year! A big thank you to everyone in the team that pulled together to bake, cook, sell and organise such a successful event. We would also like to thank every single person who came and supported us on the day and those who donated through our go fund me page. We can’t wait for next year!
