🎃 October at BID: A Month Full of Activity and Giving Back! 🎃
October was bustling with energy and enthusiasm here at BID! From cooking classes to fundraising bake sales and even blood donations, our team made every day count. Here’s a look back at all we accomplished:
👩🍳 Cookery School Adventure
Over two days, our Senior team rolled up their sleeves at Saddleworth Cookery School. Together, they tackled fresh pasta, en croute, profiteroles, and pavlova! With teamwork as the main ingredient, everyone learned that no one eats unless we all work together! (And yes, the photos prove it—the food was definitely edible!)
🍰 Charity Bake Sale for Ruddi’s Retreat
For the third time this year, we hosted a charity cake sale for Ruddi’s Retreat, helping them raise essential funds to support families in need. We’re proud to contribute to such a meaningful cause and give back to our community!
🩸 Blood Cancer Awareness
October was Blood Cancer Awareness Month, and we partnered with the NHS Blood Bank to give our team a chance to check their eligibility to donate blood and potentially save lives. A huge thank you to everyone who participated!
Nacho Average Lunch: Turning a Workday into a Fiest-a! 🌮🎉
Last week's lunch fuddle was nacho average workday! The Lifestyle Team threw a Mexican-themed lunch, and it was a fiesta of flavours! From endless nachos to loaded tacos and spicy guac, we might have set a new office record for the number of nachos consumed. (But hey, who’s counting? 😉)
Big shoutout to everyone who brought their A-game (and favourite salsa) to make this lunch unforgettable! Turns out, when it comes to nachos, there’s no such thing as too many.
👻 Spooky Bake Sale for Coppafeel!
Of course, it’s not October without a little spookiness! To support Coppafeel’s breast cancer awareness mission, we held a spooky-themed bake sale, raising just shy of £200. From ghostly cakespops to eerie treats, it was a delicious way to make a difference.
Thank you to everyone who contributed, participated, and made October a month of community, teamwork, and impact! 💪 #LifeAtBID #Charity #Teamwork #BloodCancerAwareness #BreastCancerAwareness #Fundraising #October #MexicanFuddle #NachoAverageLunch
