Bake Off and Strictly Stars Share their Skills with Social Care
The star of Great British Bake Off, Lizzie Acker, is set to entertain hundreds of people across the care sector on Thursday by delivering a free accessible baking experience on www.What-To-Do.co.uk, Community Integrated Care’s website that gives people who access social care a range of free, high-quality and accessible live activities and experiences.
The session, on Thursday 6th October, at 6.30pm, will see Liverpool’s Lizzie hosting an exclusive live bake-along experience teaching people how to make Kitchen Cupboard Cookies, simple to make yet delicious treats, and helping them to become ‘Star Baker’ for the day.
Strictly finalist and award-winning dancer, Vincent Simone also returned to the website by popular demand, to deliver his third accessible dance class on Tuesday, demonstrating simple salsa steps.
