Stop for Tea

More than 165 million cups of tea are enjoyed in the UK every day. Let's pour as many as we can to help children!

Stop for Tea is a great opportunity to get together with your friends, family and colleagues and help end cruelty to children in the UK. Simply throw a tea party of any shape or size and the proceeds will support the Child’s Voice Appeal.

Here are just a few ideas for ways you can enjoy Stop for Tea and raise money for children, whether you're holding an event for two people or 20.

Tea parties at home

Afternoon tea
Invite your friends and family round to enjoy finely cut cucumber sandwiches, pastries and tea for a small fee.

Children's tea party
Invite your friends and their children to a party with miniature tea sets. Treat them to milk and cookies for a small donation, and have fun decorating teacups.

Tea breaks at work

The boss's turn
Why not get your manager to make tea for the office, and collect tips for the NSPCC?

Tea and cake
Ask your colleagues to bake cakes in advance. Have a competition and ask people to pay to sample the entries.

Tea with a twist

Tee off
Set up a Stop for Tea golf competition at your local club and invite your friends and other members to pay to take part.

Something stronger
Invite friends over for the evening and sell tea-inspired drinks such as Long Island iced tea and G&T!
