  2 mins read time Each year our Big October Cake Bake is a wonderful opportunity for our amazing supporters to raise money for Children on the Edge by making, eating and sharing delicious cakes and bakes. This year was no different, and we’re grateful to everyone who took part in making it such a success.
 As we reflect on the news that The Body Shop at Home is closing in February, we are left with an overwhelming sense of gratitude and admiration for the consultants that have supported our work. So we wanted to send you all a message.

 81-year-old retired army Major Mick Stanley was so moved when he saw the crisis unfolding in Ukraine that he's decided to take to the water in his boat; 'The Tintanic', and raise money to support Ukrainian refugees. The one-man rowing boat is completely homemade, constructed from sheets of corrugated iron and decorated with flags and bunting.
