All this week, The Priory Rooms Meeting & Conference Centre are fundraising for the international peacebuilding charity Cord to support their projects in Africa and Asia.

As delegates enjoy their freshly filtered coffee, fair trade tea and delicious selection of cakes, The Priory Rooms are kindly asking for donations of any spare change to support the charity.

Since 1967, Cord has worked with millions of people rebuilding their lives after conflict. Currently working in Chad, Burundi, Cambodia, Myanmar and Laos, they partner with local people to end poverty and build peace.

This summer Cord are encouraging you to make time for a cup of tea and a piece of cake with friends, family and colleagues and help raise funds for their on-going peace work. The charity launched their summer of fundraising tea parties last Saturday in Stratford upon Avon with a bouncy castle and play equipment, face painting, craft stalls and of course tea with cake!

The Priory Rooms are delighted to be supporting the work of Cord again, following the successful “Spend a Penny Challenge”! The Priory Rooms is owned by Central England Quakers whose commitment to promoting peace campaigns amongst local and international communities is a valued initiative of staff who enjoy hosting fundraising events!
