🍰 Cakes for Kindness Day – Baking a Difference Together! 🧡
Today at Cuffley Manor, our home was filled with the sweetest aromas and even sweeter intentions. As part of Cake4Kindness CIC, an initiative inviting care homes, schools, hospitals, workplaces and individuals to bake for change, our incredible community came together to spread kindness far beyond our doors.
With this year’s uplifting slogan, “Baking a Difference Together,” our residents, team members and even family members rolled up their sleeves to create an amazing 124 cakes — all lovingly baked and all delivered with a smile.
We had an impressive THREE distribution days visiting homelessness organisations and community partners including "The Open Door Project", Emmaus Hertfordshire, and Goffs Oak Methodist Church as well as supporting our local church's monthly coffee morning - Causeway Community Church!
We also shared cakes with those who support us and work closely with our residents — Parkfield Medical Centre and our local pharmacy, Questmoor Pharmacy — as a heartfelt thank-you for the care they provide.
This wonderful initiative didn’t just fill cake boxes — it strengthened community bonds. By meeting new local partners and reconnecting with familiar ones, we were able to deepen relationships that support both our residents and the wider community, paving the way for meaningful collaboration in the future.
It was a truly inspiring display of teamwork, compassion, and shared purpose. We’re so proud of everyone who took part, and we hope these cakes bring comfort, joy, and a reminder that kindness always makes a difference.
A special thank you goes out to Malcolm, one of our dedicated volunteers who supports our wellbeing team with resident's trips and activities and who kindly helped us with some of the drop-offs. A special mention also goes out to our kitchen team, our wellbeing and care team and the residents who came together to bake kindness!
Here’s to baking, giving, and growing together. 💛
