Black Tie and Sparkles Charity Ball
Following the fantastic success of the Cake Bake, Andy and Emma Fennell held a Charity Ball on Friday 14th September 2012 at Risley Hall Hotel in order to help raise funds for Little Hearts Matter Charity. The room looked amazing by the time all the sponsors had finished decorating it and we had a great time supplying the balloon decorations for the night. After a very successful night including a live band, raffle prizes, a silent auction and charity donations, Andy and Emma confirmed they had raised a massive £4,720 for the Little Hearts Matter Charity. What a fantastic night, well done to everyone who was involved. You can see the work of the charity at www.lhm.org.uk.

The Big Hearted Bake 2012
On Saturday 30th June 2012 we took part in a very special charity event in Toton, Nottingham. The Big Hearted Bake 2012 was held to raise money for the charity Little Hearts Matter - (www.lhm.org.uk) a charity that supports families and those affected when a child has half a working heart. The day was organised by Emma and Andy Fennell from Toton who sadly lost their little girl Cerys at only 12 days old.
Even though the rain didnt keep away on the day, the atmosphere was great and stalls included delicious cakes to buy, a raffle, childrens face paint along with many other outdoor activities and not only were we there but the BBC News also turned up to capture the story of how important Little Hearts Matter is.
The day was fantastic and everyone who came to support Emma and Andy raised a total of over £3,500, which will help the charity immensely.
Below is a few photos of the day.
