Why host your own tea party?
It’s been a scary and daunting time for everyone due to Covid-19, and particularly for people with learning disabilities and autism who can find the changes to life even harder to understand. As restrictions are easing, people with learning disabilities are still very much at risk.
Every penny you raise at your Virtual Hftea Party can help to ensure people with learning disabilities and Hft frontline staff are given the support they need throughout these difficult times.
Your safety is our priority, so please do keep an eye on the Government’s Covid-19 advice to make sure you can host your virtual Hftea party in a safe way.

We can’t wait for you to have the best cuppa ever!
Hosting a virtual Hftea party might be new to some of us, but this doesn’t mean it’s any less enjoyable to do! Here you’ll find answers to all the questions you might have to make sure you have the best tea party ever!
How will tea and cake help Hft?
It could provide someone with a one cup kettle that helps them safely make a cup of tea without needing the assistance of a support worker.
How do I host a virtual tea party?
Our fundraising pack contains lots of information and inspiration; if you need any help just give us a call!
How do I raise money virtually?
There are lots of ways to raise money, you could charge guests on the (virtual) door, you could arrange some fun activities like a quiz, fancy dress, auction yummy baked goods, live bake-a-thon or decorating games!
What are the best ways to promote my tea party?
We recommend promoting it on your social channels. You could send out personal invites that way or by email or phone. Once invited keep everyone updated and excited for the big day, set up a WhatsApp or Facebook group to do this.
Don’t worry if a cuppa isn’t for you. You can still support Hft by making a donation to our Hft pandemic appeal or signing up as one of our Hft Response Volunteers. Or why not check out our other ways to get involved from home?
