A cuppa for a cure

By KATIE DE VERTEUIL

DELICIOUS home-baked treats washed down with steamy beverages and all for a good cause.
Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea is on again, with Thursday 28 May marking the national event to raise funds and awareness for the Cancer Council.
To show their support, the local branch of the Queensland Cancer Council will be holding an event at the Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club, Gympie Terrace, Noosaville.
The morning tea will begin at 9.30am with lucky door prizes and raffles along with an abundance of sweet and savoury treats to tempt the tastebuds.
Organiser Annie Evans said the morning tea was a simple and fun way to support an incredibly worthy cause.
“Too many of my friends have gone through cancer and this is a way I could support them and continued research for a cancer-free future,” Annie said.
“There are so many in our community affected in some way by cancer and this is something small that can make a big difference.”
Annie said the group of volunteers were hoping to beat last year’s total of $2200. Entry is $10.
For catering purposes it is preferable that tables are booked in advance, however entry can also be purchased at the door.
For all bookings and inquiries, phone Annie on 0409 385 566.
