Silver Spoon Local Little Hero Award


We are searching for a Local Little Hero near you!

To celebrate the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning for Macmillan Cancer Support, official sugar sponsor Silver Spoon, the home grown sugar people, have launched the Silver Spoon Local Little Hero Awards, where they are scouring the country for local heroes under the age of 18 who have done something truly special. Your local little hero could have looked after their little sister when they were ill, gone to great lengths to make Mother’s Day very special, or done something fantastic to raise money for charity.

If you know someone under 18 in your local area who you think would be a worthy winner, tell us in less than 100 words who you are nominating, why, and what you would bake them to say thank you.

Master Pâtissier Eric Lanlard, star of Channel 4’s Baking Mad with Eric Lanlard, will choose a Silver Spoon National Little Hero and to celebrate the lucky winner will have the chance to spend a day with Eric, either at their school or Eric’s own cake boutique in London. Eric will teach them some of his trade secrets and bake them a cake of their choice to take home. 10 runners up will also bag themselves a year’s supply of baking goodies. To grab your slice of the action simply fill out the form below!

"I am honoured to be able to support Macmillan's World's Biggest Coffee Morning again in 2013. I am especially looking forward to judging the ultimate Silver Spoon Local Little Hero competition and spending a day with the winner. There isn’t much that beats a day of baking and eating cake, and what a great way to help raise much needed funds for Macmillan to ensure no one faces cancer alone."
