The Big Hour Tea Time is all about making the most of the extra hour we gain when the clocks go back this Autumn to highlight how crucial time is for families caring for a seriously ill child.
We are encouraging people to join in and use their extra hour to make a difference by baking and selling tasty treats to help raise vital funds for this amazing charity and help those in need.
Why not make these 60 minutes one of your finest hours?
