Alzheimer’s Society Cupcake Day – 14th June 2018

3rd June 2018



St John’s Winchester will be participating in the Alzheimer’s Society’s national Cupcake Day on Thursday 14th June 2018. We will be getting together to raise money for the Society, with bake sales being held in two locations across our sites. Bake sales will be held at Moorside and also on St John’s South garden, between 10:30am – 12:30pm. Please note that in the event of poor weather this will be moved to the Community Room on Colebrook Street, next to the St Mary Magdalen almshouses.

According to the Alzheimer’s Society, someone develops dementia every three minutes in the UK and currently there is no cure. By participating in the Cupcake Day fundraiser, we hope to raise funds to find new treatments and hopefully, a cure.

Cakes other goodies will be on sale at a competitively yummy price. Please feel free to bake some goods or simply come along, join in and show your support – and remember to bring your appetites!
