Almost one in two Australians will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85. Every year in May, thousands of people come together for Australia's Biggest Morning Tea - the best way to raise funds for cancer research and support services, while sharing a cup of tea.
It is an opportunity for you and your friends, family and workmates to come together, share a cuppa, some delicious food, and help those affected by cancer.
The funds you raise help run Cancer Council WA's vital support services, lifesaving cancer research and educational prevention programs. One dollar at a time, you are making a real difference to the lives of Australians impacted by cancer.
The official day is Thursday 19 May 2022, but you can host anytime that suits you in May or June.
So sign up today and host an Australia's Biggest Morning Tea your way!
Many hosts tell us their guests are looking for healthier options at their morning teas. So, ditch the usual biscuits and stodgy supermarket cakes and let us help you put the BIG in your Biggest Morning Tea with these delicious recipes.
Whether you make them yourself, or ask someone else to, your guests will love these delicious and healthy treats. With good nutrition linked to lower rates of a number of cancers, serving up healthy food is one way you can support your friends, family and colleagues to reduce their cancer risk.
Our top recipes:
- These pumpkin and sweet potato scones look impressive but are surprisingly simple to make! With a gorgeous orange tinge and satisfying sprinkle of pumpkin seeds on top your guests will be in heaven.
- For a colourful spin on a morning tea classic, try this delicious roast beetroot hummus. Pair with grainy crackers and chopped up veg.
- Honestly, who doesn't love banana cake! Or if it's a bit early for cake, try this date and muesli slice recipe packed with wholegrains for the perfect companion to your cuppa.
- A morning tea classic, sandwich triangles add a savoury touch to your spread. And there's so many delicious and healthy options to choose from! Go for a more traditional flavour like curried egg, or go bolder with roast pumpkin and salad, gourmet vegetarian, or roast beef and chutney.
- Got some eggs to use up? Try these healthy vegie filo cups or this scrumptious beetroot, broccoli and goats cheese tart. Or you can always rely on the crowd favourite, zucchini slice.
