Margaret Thornby’s Tea & Tea Room Talk Magazine

Give to charitea and win a prize

We have had help over the years from a local charity – mosaic: shaping disability services. They have given us advice on how to present the information about access for disabled people in our tea room guides and in the magazine. Many of our readers say this is very helpful. mosaic are now having a last push for funds for their new building where disabled people and their famillies will be able to access a wide range of services as well as social events. They will, of course, be serving people good quality loose leaf tea in their new building! We have offered to help their fund-raising by donating 10% of the profits from every subscription to TEA magazine and every sale of our tea from August 21 – 31 December 2009. By doing this you will also have the chance to enter our competition, through which you could win the chance for you and your friends to learn all about tea tasting with James Pogson at Northern Tea Merchant – http://www.northern-tea.com

So if you care about Charitea – subscribe or buy your tea now. See also the chairty’s website for information about their services:
