charity bake sales and red tape

yogi_brrr

Hello,

How straight forward is it to do a bake sale if all the proceeds are going to charity ? Are bake sales subject to the same regulations concerning hygiene and sale of goods ? If so, how do organisations such as the WI get away with selling cake and jam at local fairs, church jumble sales, etc ?

Many thanks for your comments

Does this help?

This is a common sense guide, IMO.

However, if you're running an event and using the name of a charity to publicise it, you need to get their permission first, and they may well have guidance or information sheets to help you.

It does help, many thanks Sue !
Just need some clarification on whether we would need trading license, etc in order to sell the goods, so if anyone can advise I'd v. much appreciate it
