Take part in an online event

Online events started to really take off as we all stayed in our houses during the pandemic last year. Meetings and family gatherings held on Zoom have become the norm. As Covid restrictions remain in place in 2021, online events have now really started to feel even more important. They are a way of connecting with others but still enable charities, such as CLEFT, to continue with our important work.

We have currently put our online events programme on hold while we can take advantage of being outside but will resume again in the autumn. We have another brilliant bread workshop lined up, as well as round 2 of our celebrity quiz at Christmas. We would really love you to get involved so please check back here or you can email the CLEFT office if you would like to register your interest for either of these events.
