Host your own Yorkshire Tea Party
What’s our county’s favourite drink? TEA! Invite family and friends around for a good old fashioned cuppa. A cream tea is a perfect opportunity to enjoy a social event this Summer!
Put up the bunting, whip up a cake or two and stick the kettle on!
More ideas…
You could stage your own bake-off and compete for the title of ‘Star Baker’, organise a Yorkshire quiz or play our Yorkshire sweepstake game.
Tea not your drink? Invite the family round for a Sunday Roast, just don’t forget the Yorkshire puddings! Compete to see who can make the biggest!
Lace your boots or trainers and plan your walking or running route for Yorkshire Day. Could you take on your own Yorkshire Day 5K or 10K?
Yorkshire has the most successful cricket team in the country. Organise a charity cricket match or get the whole club involved with fundraising!
We’re always on hand to offer help and advice. Got your own idea to raise funds for CHSF? Have a question for the CHSF team?
