Launch of Second Year of 'Cakes for Care' Fundraiser

Hospice Isle of Man is excited to announce the return of one of its sweetest fundraising campaigns -  Cakes for Care, back for its second year this Hospice Care Week, taking place 6th – 10th October 2025.

Following the success of its inaugural year, which saw the local community raise over £8,700, Cakes for Care is once again inviting individuals, businesses, schools, and groups across the Island to host their very own cake-based fundraiser - whether it's a coffee morning, bake sale, afternoon tea, office cake-off, or cooking up your own idea!

And here’s the icing on the cake: unlike national fundraising events where the money raised leaves the Island, every penny raised through Cakes for Care stays right here in support of Hospice Isle of Man. That means your effort and generosity directly ‘bakes’ a difference in your own community.

Vanessa Smith, Head of Income Generation at Hospice Isle of Man, said:

“We were absolutely thrilled with the response to last year’s campaign, and we’re so excited to launch Cakes for Care 2025, once again in support of our Hospice. Every penny raised helps us continue delivering excellence in palliative and end of life care for our Island community, so every slice served and enjoyed really does help us bake a difference. We invite you to get involved and join us in raising a cuppa and raising funds for Hospice Isle of Man.”

Participants can sign up online to receive a free fundraising pack, which includes recipes, branded posters, bunting, cake toppers, labels, activities and more. Additional downloadable resources are also available via the Hospice website to help make each event a piece of cake.
