Yorkshire's Big Birthday Brew

Every cup helps save lives in Yorkshire

Everyone can be part of Yorkshire’s Big Birthday Brew in 2025, the charity’s centenary year. 

No matter when and where you hold it, or the size of your tea party or coffee morning, by making it a ‘Big Brew’, you’re helping fund vital cancer research.

Yorkshire is the tea drinking capital of the country - let’s get together and make every cuppa (and cake!) count.

Invite

Collect

Every sip helps to save lives in Yorkshire. Even a small cup of tea can make a difference. Ask people to donate to your JustGiving page or pay in your fundraising after your event.

How your support helps

Every 17 minutes someone in Yorkshire is told they have cancer. By being part of the Big Birthday Brew, you can help fund pioneering research and services to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer. 

Every cuppa and every cake bought at your Big Brew could help fund a researcher’s time, and each collection makes a difference. Every £70 raised could fund a researcher developing cancer cures for half a day.

Together, anything is possible.
