Local gym invites people to Give a Hand and Bake for the Stroke Association
Moulsecoomb Community Leisure Centre is holding a bake sale on Saturday 28 October to support the Stroke Association’s latest fundraising initiative: Give a Hand and Bake.
Give a Hand and Bake calls on people across the South East to host their own bake sale, all with the aim of raising some serious dough. The money raised will help fund world-leading research that will help to save lives and change the story for stroke survivors.
This year, thousands of people across the UK will be donning their aprons for Give a Hand and Bake Week, which runs from 23 to 29 October 2017.
Among them will be staff from Moulsecoomb Community Leisure Centre, who are rolling up their sleeves, grabbing a mixing bowl and baking to raise vital funds for stroke survivors.
Becky Beard, Community and Events Fundraising Manager at the Stroke Association, said: “Across the UK, more than a million people are rebuilding their lives after stroke. By taking part in Give a Hand and Bake, you could help people who have been affected by stroke get their lives back on track.
“We’re incredibly grateful to the team at Freedom Leisure for supporting the Stroke Association. The money raised will go a long way in helping to support people who are living with the effects of stroke and their families and carers, as well as help to prevent people from having a stroke.”
Freedom Leisure’s bake sale will be held at Moulsecommb Community Leisure Centre on Saturday 28 October from 11am – 7:30pm. For more information, please contact the gym on 01273 622266.
