The 26th September is the 'World's Biggest Coffee Morning', with venues, schools, companies and homes nationwide running coffee mornings to support the great work Macmillan Cancer Support do every year for thousands of people.
The Students' Union is no different in wanting to support this great work and so all of our venues at both Stoke and Stafford are running a Coffee Morning Session on the 26th with coffee and cake available. All donations made will be going to Macmillan, but on top of that the Students' Union is giving 50% of all coffee sales that day to Macmillan Cancer Support.
Great Staffs Bake-off Event
Get baking, win prizes and help a charity!
The coffee morning is something all of our venues will be doing, but we are also doing a coffee morning with a difference with both Ember Lounge (Stoke) and The Lounge (Stafford) running a 'Great Staffs Bake-off' event at the same time.
The Great Staffs Bake-off is a competition where we want to encourage Students, Staff and members of the public to register their baking creations and bring them to either Ember Lounge or The Lounge on the day.
Part of their creations will be judged by our panel and the top three at both sites will be given a prize, the Star Baker at boths sites will win baking equipment donated by Innerglass. Other prizes will include vouchers and event entry. There will also be 2 food hampers donated by GreenPad, our sustainable homes project at the SU, for the cake using the most sustainable and/or ethical ingredients with a prize for each campus.
The rest of your baking creation that is not judged, is open to the public who will donate to macmillan to get a peice of your product, win-win!
To register your baking creation into the Great 'Staffs' Bake-off competition, please click here. Once you have registered you will be sent more information about what you need to do. You will also be sent the two documents below around food safety and allergens. If you want to read these documents before you register (which we encourage you to do), please click the links below.
The judging will be happening between 11am and 1pm. All products must be at the venue before 10:30, so if you have lectures or meetings, make sure you drop off your product and if you win we will let you know. Both venues open from 9am.
