ME awareness Cookies!

Options
During the month of May Post Pals- an organisation brightening the lives of seriously ill children, is running a campaign to raise awareness of the neurological condition ME (which team have), raise some funds to make a difference and post lots of SMILES on people's faces.

We are baking cookies and sending them through the post with a choice of awareness ribbon or star shapes both with "ME" written in red icing on, we have an option of 2 flavours ginger or plain. They will be wrapped in backing parchment to keep them fresh, bubble wrap to protect and brown paper, included in the package will be an A4 information sheet, a great and subtle way of teaching people about ME, it even has a bear on the corner proudly wearing his blue ribbon and will say they are from you and a space for a message. Perfect to send to friends, family, yourself as a treat, a friend with ME, children on Post Pals etc.

To send 5 cookies for £3, or 10 for £4.50 including P&P please send a donation via Paypal at info@postpals.co.uk or cheque made payable to Post Pals marked Cookie Project send to PO Box 278, Leatherhead, Surrey, KT23 4WN, with the following

  • I'll be doing this - it's a very good cause, and one often (quite wrongly) viewed with suspicion and ignorance.
