Saturday 3rd May has been in the diary for a while and was a day that we were really looking forward to. It has, I am glad to say, not disappointed at all. We have spent a super day at Munchies on the Meadow 2014 in Cobham, Kent. We were invited last year to open the very first Munchies on the Meadow and had a great day. So, we were really excited when we were invited back for a second year and this time they very generously donated a stall for us to start raising funds, and awareness, for our charity the British Family Foundation. The weather was exceptional, and a year of hard work and dedication by the organisers made for a slick and fantastically attended event.
There were many of our old friends at the event: Kent Chilli Farm, Howards of Kent, Nelsons Brewery, Kent Crisps and Simply Ice Cream. There were also lots of new friends to be made as there were lots more stalls than last year.
As part of our stall we ran a raffle to raise money to begin our charity work. We are pleased to announce the winners of our raffle were:
1st Prize – Mr Wells
2nd Prize – Ben Keelan
3rd Prize – Amy Taylor
We will contact everyone via the details they gave us and hope to have their prizes with them as soon as possible.
All in all it was a really great day and despite not winning the Munchies Bake Off (my attempt was terrible, having been forgotten while watching Masterchef) we had a great time meeting people nd getting some fantistic feedback about our plans for the foundation.
Thank you to everyone we met who were so supportive of the charity and we look forward to coming back to Munchies on the Meadow 2015!

Well done you! Not commented for a while but watching you grow and grow. You are doing brilliantly. I admire you so much. Glad yesterday was a success. May the Fourth be with you – ha ha!!!
Thanks Liz, your continued support is much appreciated. 😉
Was really good – even better than last year, particularly the stall with the sausage rolls, and the lady with her meringues! and I’m one of the winners, whoo hoo! Will send an email to James like he asked in his voicemail. Was lovely to meet you both in person, I hope the foundation grows and grows. We’re really looking forward to coming to the Great British Fayre again in August, it’s so important to back all our UK producers. My husband is a huge fan of Cape Westerley polo shirts, which are British made. Maybe try them?
Congratulations on winning our raffle. Hope you enjoy your prize.
It has it be said that we have never heard of Cape Westerley. We will check these out!
