Throw tea party in aid of Trussell Trust People in Cumbria are being urged to throw a tea party and brew up a bumper donation, in support of anti-poverty charity the Trussell Trust. Tea for Trussell is an opportunity for friends, families and colleagues to get together over a cuppa and cake – to help raise vital funds and end the need for food banks in the UK. Fundraisers can choose to host an event at home with their nearest and dearest or raise their mugs virtually with loved ones. The official dates for Tea for Trussell are June 21 – July 4, but people can hold their tea party whenever and wherever suits them.
