READY, steady...bake!

Those are the words of TV presenter Sally Taylor as she invites the entire county to tea.

Sally is the face of BBC South Today and the chair of The Haven in Wessex appeal committee and today with the support of the Daily Echo she is launching the charitys 1 Million Tea Party in a bid to open the regions specialist support centre for breast cancer survivors as soon as possible.

The Haven hopes to open its doors in October now building work is under way to refurbish the grade II listed property in Titchfield. The centre will offer free support for anyone affected by breast cancer including emotional support and alternative therapies.

Already 1.5 million has been raised but to fund converting the building into a haven and initial running costs there is 1m to go and the charity needs your support.

The Haven in Wessex 1 Million Tea Party takes place from Monday, February 9 until Monday, February 16 and anything goes.

Everyone from friends to work colleagues and even builders are urged to tie up their aprons, put the kettle on and rise to the challenge to show their support to those battling cancer.

Sally, said: Absolutely anybody of any age can take part in The Haven in Wessex tea party friends, work colleagues, mums, schools, absolutely anyone, even guys in garages and how great would it be if dockers could join in.

Just take some time out, drink tea, eat cake and raise money for charity it really cant get any better than that.
