What kind of cake are you? Jewish Care’s Bake Day launches!
Find out if you're more of a cheesecake, rugelach or a honey cake - with Jewish Care's fun questionnaire ahead of its sixth annual Bake Day!
Jewish Care’s sixth annual Great Jewish Bake Day has been launched with a fun online quiz, asking “Which Kind of Jewish Cake Are You’?
Jewish News is once again media partnering the event – which takes place on 4 July!
As well as encouraging the community to hold bake sales, coffee and cake mornings and garden tea parties, an interactive quiz has been designed to find out if you’re a cheesecake, rugelach or a honey cake!
Funds raised will help keep 15 Jewish Care buses on the road, which make 10,000 journeys each year – travelling 70,000 miles – to take older, isolated members of the community to the charity’s centres, including for those living with dementia.
Jewish Care’s Chief Executive designate and Director of Fundraising & Marketing, said: “Every year as the sun comes out we turn our attention to encouraging people across the community to get baking or eating cakes whilst raising vital funds for our Jewish Care buses that transport older people from across the community to our centres. The Great Jewish Bake Day is also a fun opportunity for people of all ages to get together and enjoy a slice of cake and a chat”.

Engaging
Being a community platform means so much more than producing a newspaper and website. One of our proudest roles is media partnering with our invaluable charities to amplify the outstanding work they do to help us all.
Celebrating
There’s no shortage of oys in the world but Jewish News takes every opportunity to celebrate the joys too, through projects like Night of Heroes, 40 Under 40 and other compelling countdowns that make the community kvell with pride.
Pioneering
In the first collaboration between media outlets from different faiths, Jewish News worked with British Muslim TV and Church Times to produce a list of young activists leading the way on interfaith understanding.
Campaigning
Royal Mail issued a stamp honouring Holocaust hero Sir Nicholas Winton after a Jewish News campaign attracted more than 100,000 backers. Jewish Newsalso produces special editions of the paper highlighting pressing issues including mental health and Holocaust remembrance.
Easy access
In an age when news is readily accessible, Jewish News provides high-quality content free online and offline, removing any financial barriers to connecting people.
Voice of our community to wider society
The Jewish News team regularly appears on TV, radio and on the pages of the national press to comment on stories about the Jewish community. Easy access to the paper on the streets of London also means Jewish News provides an invaluable window into the community for the country at large.
We hope you agree all this is worth preserving.
