I'm writing to ask your readers to get involved in ChildLine's 19th birthday celebrations.

You can whisk, beat and stir it up by joining in with Cakes for ChildLine, supported by Hotpoint, during the week of October 24-28.

It's a piece of cake to get involved!

Thousands of people across the UK will be whipping up a recipe for success for ChildLine by baking and selling cakes to friends, family and colleagues.

This can enable the 24-hour helpline to continue providing help and support to hundreds of children and young people every day.

So, for once it looks like we can all have our cake and eat it!

A special Cakes for ChildLine pack is available to get you started, with hints, tips and celebrity recipes.

To obtain a pack, log on to www.childline.org.uk or call 0870 336 2996.
