The charity has commended the bakers for ‘making a huge difference’ to people living with cancer and their families.

This year’s event takes place on Friday, September 6, from 10am to 12 noon at The Lost and Found.

Bake club member Dee Griffiths said: “We are a small group of home bakers who meet regularly and talk and taste any baking recipe.

“The meetings have a theme which changes each time and we are all passionate about the joy of baking.”

A feast of cakes, biscuits, deserts and pastries will be available at their giant annual fundraiser.

Many cake lovers pop in to buy treats to share with family and friends.

Local businesses collect cake deliveries to bring to colleagues in shops and offices across the town.

Anyone wishing to donate a cake is welcome to drop it off at the Lost and Found by 9.30am on Friday, September 6.
