Packington\u2019s Big Breakfast Again in 2016!<\/strong> <\/span><\/h1>\n

Saturday 5th<\/sup> March 2016 9 am to 1 pm
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Hospice Hope has been chosen as the charity to benefit from this year\u2019s Big Breakfast at the Packington Memorial Hall on Saturday\u00a05th March<\/strong>, from 9am through to 1pm.\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>This fantastic event, which is now in its fifth year, is a chance to forget any New Year\u2019s Resolutions or diet plans and enjoy a full English breakfast for a great cause in a friendly, social setting<\/span>.<\/span><\/span>\"20150228<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>
\nThe event is the brainchild of Mike Coke<\/strong>, who initiated the first Packington Big Breakfast in 2012<\/strong> and raised funds for a Children\u2019s charity, and again in 2013 for a national cancer charity.\u00a0 150 breakfasts were dished up then, but it was felt that the idea could be put to better use for local projects.\u00a0 So in 2014, over \u00a31,400 was raised to provide Packington with its own defibrillator and in 2015 another 300 breakfasts raised \u00a31,400 to send a local boy with muscular dystrophy for specialised treatment in Scotland.<\/span><\/span>
\n You don\u2019t have to live in Packington to support the event – but it is heart-warming that the village does turn out in full for a good fry-up!\u00a0 A full English is only \u00a36 (\u00a33 for children) or just have a bacon\/sausage bap for \u00a33.\u00a0 They also do takeaways!\u00a0 No need to book, just pop along to the Village Hall in the centre of Packington. During the morning there will also be a chance to buy tickets for the big Packington Raffle, with its valuable prizes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As you can expect with an event that is serving up a cooked breakfast every minute for four hours, the Big Breakfast is heavily reliant on volunteers<\/strong>.\u00a0 Please help<\/strong> – Mike would love to hear from anyone who would be interested in helping out with taking orders, money, making drinks and plating up the food \u2013 his contact details are below.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday 5th March between 9am and 1pm.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If you are able to volunteer, even for just an hour, or for more information about the event, please email:\u00a0 mike.coke@talktalk.net<\/a><\/span> or ring him on 01530 560430.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
