Rye business helps needy children

As in previous years, they will be running the appeal on behalf of the NSPCC.

Rye Retreat owner Jenny Sperring said: “On December 7 our staff and clients will be offering home made treats such as Sarah and Melissa’s famous cup cakes and delicious coffee or hot chocolate, in return for a donation to the NSPCC.

“Please pop in to show your support and enjoy some of our amazing local cooking talent.

“If you would like to donate toys we only ask that they be new and unwrapped, to help Santa make the right choice of gift. We will ensure all gifts are delivered to deserving children in the local area.

“We will also be holding a raffle to be drawn on Christmas Eve, where you can win a fabulous spa day at the Rye Retreat worth £300.

“Come in and help us make a difference to local children in need this Christmas.”
