charity campaign of the month: 'Flour-ish' by Spark+Mettle

To kick off our new charity campaign series we ask: how do you turn baking into an alternative fundraising drive? This month, Spark+Mettle's 'Flour-ish' caught our eye and made our mouths water. Read on to find out why.

About the charity

Spark+Mettle is a start-up organisation who help people to - you guessed it - flourish. They give less-privileged young people an opportunity to unleash their potential and harness it to a fulfilling career through their training programmes and resources.

About the campaign

The third Monday of January is typically heralded as Blue Monday (the most depressing day of the year), so Spark+Mettle enlisted the help of Delia Smith, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and Prue Leith to create a website full of recipes designed to help people 'flourish' and beat the blues. We really liked the Toffee Apple Cake. You can also use a text-donation service to donate to Spark+Mettle's work. Visit flour-ish.org.uk to find out more about the campaign.
