Karen said: “Wirral Hospice St. John’s is such an important part of our Wirral community so it was a great pleasure, and a lot of fun, to prepare the cakes for people to enjoy.

“We had a really brilliant day and I was thrilled to raise some much needed funds for our lovely local hospice.”

Wirral Hospice St John’s launched the ‘Care for a Cuppa’ campaign for residents to raise donations whilst sharing a cake and cuppa with family and friends in community events.
