Tea off to save children's lives

Ten million young children die each year but you can join thousands of people to raise money in Save the Children’s biggest ever campaign to save their lives.

And it can be easy and pleasant. If you love a cuppa at home or at work, click on Go Tea-potty for an information pack and hold your own tea party with friends, family and colleagues.

You can organise one during Save the Children’s national appeal week, Sunday 27 April - Saturday 3 May. Marks and Spencer will be supplying tea, coffee and lots of pancakes (courtesy of Ormeau Bakery) for tea parties.

The charity wants to do something about the appalling fact that ten million children still die every year before their fifth birthday. Incredibly, most die from illnesses like diarrhoea or pneumonia – things we know how to prevent or treat.
