Hosting a Sensational Tea Party is your chance to have fun, drink tea and make a difference for people with complex needs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a breakdown of why it\u2019s time to sign up to host a Tea Party. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Get your friends and family together <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Everyone loves a reason to get together. Hosting a Sensational Tea Party will give a chance to see loved ones you might not have seen in a while, and have lots of fun while you do it!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s more, each sip of tea will taste all the better knowing you\u2019ll be raising vital funds for the work Sense does.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Flex those creative muscles <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sensational Tea Party is all about tickling the senses: can you surprise people with flavour? Can you wow people with colour and sparkles? Can you provide a squidge like no other with your cake? How can you make it sensational? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Cake! Need we say more? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This one is pretty self-explanatory, but no Tea Party is complete without a good serving of cake. It\u2019s the perfect reason to get your fill of that sugary, spongey goodness.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you\u2019re holding a Tea Party in your office, consider this a chance, once and for all, to crown the best baker in your workplace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Another excuse for a cuppa <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your Tea Party doesn\u2019t necessarily have to be a fancy affair \u2013 even if you\u2019re getting together for a brew and a natter with some pals, it all counts. Make your Tea Party sensational in a way that suits you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember, you\u2019re giving your cuppa an extra layer of goodness by raising money for charity while you do it.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. A chance to get the fancy cups out <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

And while your event doesn\u2019t have to be fancy, if that\u2019s your thing then go for it.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve seen that glorious china sitting at the back of your cupboard, untouched and gathering dust. Why not get it out, give it a rinse and show it off to all your Tea Party guests?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
