Collaboration with Rachel Green

Lincolnshire based chef Rachel Green is renowned for her culinary and hospitality skills. Rachel has years of experience as a chef believing that good, honest, locally-sourced food doesn’t need to be messed around with too much to taste great.

Having lived in Lincolnshire her whole life, Rachel knows the work St Barnabas does across the county to help some of the most vulnerable families who need care and support the most.

To support Care for a Cuppa, Rachel has kindly provided a ‘fool-proof’ recipe created by her mother for an absolutely incredible addition to your Care for a Cuppa, the Fairburn’s Celebration Chocolate cake.

Care for a Cuppa in memory of Jenny Kenton

Aimee Furneaux and her family in Branston hosted a Care for a Cuppa fundraiser on Saturday 20th August, raising a whopping £1,230!

Aimee, her sister Faye, and their father Paul hosted the event for dozens of family members and friends, who enjoyed delicious cakes over tea, coffee and soft drinks, and helped raise vital funds for their local Hospice.

The event was in memory of Aimee and Faye’s mother Jenny Kenton, who was a patient at St Barnabas Hospice before her death in March 2022.

Aimee says: “The dignity, respect, love and care they showed mum during her final few days will never be forgotten. The amazing service they provide to the people of Lincolnshire must never be taken for granted and should be supported and protected at all costs.”

Care for a Cuppa stories

Jean and Keith Bray, a man standing up and a woman sitting on a chair, both are smiling at the camera.
“My best friend Marion and I have done a lot to support St Barnabas over the years, and this next coffee morning will mark 10 years since our husbands died. We wanted to do something to say thank you again to the Hospice and the people who helped them.”

“This was such a feel-good day for our family and the whole community! Everyone said they had missed this social contact during the pandemic, and they all thoroughly enjoyed the day. It was an amazing turn out with such positive feedback and support.”
