We've got some great fundraising materials which are easy to download and provide the perfect recipe for success when it comes to your Bake for Heroes event:

• Bunting, tent cards and cake toppers so you stand out from the crowd
• A poster to spread the word about your event and thank you poster to let everyone in your community know how much you raised
  
• A Gift Aid form for your donors to fill in and help raise more dough
  

You can also order collection buckets or boxes - just call our friendly Supporter Care Team on 0300 303 9888.

Ready. Aim. Bake!

Here's our top five tips to make your bake sale a spectacular success:

1. Involve friends and family. Choose 10 of your closest friends and family to get involved in your bake sale, whether bringing a bake, or helping to host. Ask them to share why they’re taking part to create a buzz about your big baking day.

2. Easy–RSVPeasy. Make sure your invitees can RSVP as easily as possible. Simply including an email address or mobile number to send ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to, means more people are likely to let you know if they can come.

3. Prepare your prices. Making sure your bakes are pre-priced will help to make your day simple and stress free – use our downloadable tent cards.

4. Round up with a raffle. If you have left-overs at the end of the day, it’s not the end of the world. You can always raffle off cakes or group them together and sell them in goody-bags.

5. Enjoy it! Remember, every penny raised at your event makes a difference so however much you sell or make, have fun!
