What do I do at my Better Bones Coffee Morning?

A Coffee Morning is a wonderful place to come together with people you love, and raise money for a cause you deeply care about. It’s entirely up to you what you do at your event! 

Your coffee morning can reflect you – from big community gathering meeting new people over a coffee, to small kitchen cuppas with your close family, show-stopping chocolate cakes to delicate shortcake cookies, you can create a coffee morning to match your personality. 

Will you plan a bake off at work? How about a cake swap with your neighbours on your street? You could throw a garden party, a themed night,  

Whatever you plan, come together over coffee, tea, cake, biscuits, scones or hot chocolate, and be there for everybody living with osteoporosis.  

 

How do I host a Better Bones Coffee Morning?

You can host a Coffee Morning in whatever way works for you!  

Find a location that suits the type of event you want to plan – how about your home, or your place of work? If you’re thinking about going bigger, how about a local community venue or a local church? 

Then, choose a date. The official Better Bones Coffee Morning is Friday 18th October – the official World Osteoporosis Day is Sunday 20th October. But, you can host your event anytime that suits you. 

Once you’ve registered, we will send you a free fundraising pack that includes a guide on how to plan your coffee morning, bunting cut-outs to decorate with, eco-friendly balloons, cake toppers, cake labels and more.

 

How do I raise money at my Better Bones Coffee Morning?

There are lots of ways to raise money! You can either ask for donations in exchange for cakes and coffee, or to attend your event – or, you could ask for an entry fee to come to your event. 

You’ll be sent a sponsorship form to collect donations on the day, and we’ll also send you a coffee mug topper, to transform your favourite coffee mug into a collection tin.  

You can set up an online fundraising page on JustGiving here.

 

What date is ROS’s Better Bones Coffee Morning?

Our Better Bones Coffee Morning is around the same time as World Osteoporosis Day. While WOD day is Sunday 20th October, our Better Bones Coffee Morning is taking place on Friday 18th October. You can plan a Coffee Morning on whichever date suits you best!
