Morning Sparkle

Kick off the day with a burst of energy and sparkle! Bright, cheerful decorations, shimmering drinks, and a vibrant atmosphere will set the tone for an inspiring day. Encourage guests to wear something sparkly to add extra shine to your event.

Brunch and Bubbles

Mid-morning magic! Mix brunch favourites with sparkling teas and coffees. Serve pastries, fruit, and finger foods, and add a touch of bubbly (non-alcoholic or otherwise!) for a relaxed, social vibe. It’s the perfect way to blend breakfast and lunch with a little extra fizz.

Afternoon Glow

For those who love an afternoon gathering, the Afternoon Glow theme focuses on creating a cosy, elegant atmosphere with soft lighting, glowing candles, and warm drinks. Pair sparkling teas or coffees with sweet treats to create a calming, joyful event.

How to plan your sparkling coffee or tea morning (or afternoon)

Invites

Send out sparkly invitations to let people know about your event! Whether digital or handwritten, make sure to include all the glitter and shimmer to build excitement.

Decor

Get creative! Use twinkling fairy lights, sparkly tablecloths, glittery confetti, and festive cups to add sparkle to your gathering. Anything shiny and cheerful goes!

Sparkling teas and coffees: Add edible glitter to your teas or coffees for a magical touch.
Sweet treats: Serve sparkling cupcakes, glitter-dusted cookies, and pastries with a twinkly finish.
Savoury bites: Mini sandwiches, scones, and quiches are great accompaniments to any coffee or tea.

Fundraising fun

Make your Sparkle coffee or tea morning (or afternoon) even more memorable with these creative fundraising ideas. Beyond the delicious drinks and treats, here are some additional fun and simple ways to boost your fundraising efforts:

Book sale: Set up a mini book sale with gently used or donated books. Encourage guests to bring along their favourite reads to sell, with all proceeds going to Brain Tumour Support.
Cake sale: Why not pair your coffee or tea with a cake sale? Guests can bake and bring their sparkliest creations to sell, with glittering cupcakes, brownies, and other treats up for grabs!
Best sparkly outfit contest: Encourage everyone to wear their sparkliest outfits! Have a friendly competition for the best-dressed guest, and offer a fun prize for the winner. Charge a small entry fee to participate.
Raffles and prizes: Hold a raffle with donated items or gift baskets as prizes. Everyone loves a chance to win something special, and it’s a great way to raise extra funds.
Sparkle-themed games: Add some sparkle to classic games like a glittery “Guess the weight of the cake” or “Sparkly Quiz.” Charge a small fee to enter and award prizes to the winners.
Don’t forget to set up an online fundraising page: Make it easy for guests who can’t attend in person to support your event. Set up an online fundraising page and share it with friends, family, and colleagues. You can also accept additional donations before, during, and after the event.
