TEA FOR DEMENTIA:
TIME FOR A CUPPA FUNDRAISER

Launched in 2009, Dementia UK's "Time for a Cuppa" fundraiser has become a beloved annual tradition, raising awareness and funds to support families affected by dementia. The event, typically held in the first week of May, invites people across the United Kingdom to come together over tea and cakes, fostering community spirit while contributing to a crucial cause. As this is a fundraiser, Time for a Cuppa tea party can occur anytime throughout the year.

Participants in "Time for a Cuppa" host tea parties, inviting friends, family, and neighbors to their homes, workplaces, or community centers. These gatherings often feature an assortment of baked goods, from traditional scones and pastries to creative, themed cakes. Hosts are encouraged to collect donations during the event, which are then contributed to Dementia UK.

The initiative not only raises much-needed funds but also helps to break down the stigma surrounding dementia. "Time for a Cuppa" plays a vital role in spreading awareness and fostering understanding by providing a relaxed and enjoyable setting for conversations about the condition.

Over the years, the event has grown in popularity, with thousands of tea parties held annually nationwide. Participants often share their experiences and photos on social media, amplifying the campaign's reach and encouraging others to get involved.

There are still numerous ways to participate for those unable to host or attend a tea party. Donations can be made directly to Dementia UK, and individuals can spread the word about the fundraiser through social media and other platforms.

"Time for a Cuppa" continues to be a significant event in the UK's calendar, uniting communities supporting a cause that affects millions of lives. By simply sharing a cup of tea, participants contribute to a broader effort to provide care, support, and hope for those with dementia and their families.
