Host your own NHS Big Tea 2025
Join the nation this July and host your own NHS Big Tea party to raise funds for Mersey Cares
Want to help us raise funds for our charity and celebrate the 77th birthday of the NHS in fun, accessible and utterly refreshing way? Join the nation this from Monday 30th June - Sunday 6th July 2025 and host your own NHS Big Tea party to raise funds for Mersey Cares.
Whether you get together at home, at school, in the office, or in your local community, there are so many ways to raise money at an NHS Big Tea.
Tea parties can be held on 5 July (the NHS's actual birthday) or any day that week. Or why not make it a longer event with a week-long part-tea?!
Why host a Mersey Cares NHS Big Tea event?
Hosting an event is a great way to bring communities together around a shared love of the NHS whilst raising money to fund projects that tackle health inequalities, challenge stigma and enable us to do more to support people and services across Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust, beyond the scope of the NHS.
Everyone can get involved and every cuppa makes a difference!
So, grab your teapot, pop the kettle on and let’s turn tea and cake into cash to help support our communities across Merseyside and Cheshire.
How can I raise money?
From asking for donations in return for tea, cake and good company, to hosting a quiz, playing tea related games or running baking competitions, you can host your NHS Tea Party in whichever way you choose.
As well as suggested donations for individual cakes and tea you can also supersize your fundraising by hosting an additional activity such as a bake-off competition or a quiz for an additional suggested donation.
