Sat 5th Oct – Coeliac Family Networking meetup where coeliac families can:

1) Support teen coeliac Tilly, 2023 Junior Bake Off Winner, watching her do the grand opening of Didcot Food Festival at 10:30am and her gluten free baking demo in the Chef's Theatre 10:45-11:30am.

2) At 10:15am parents & young coeliacs collect their coeliac child’s free (pre-booked) GF goody bag from the Buckinghamshire/Chilterns Coeliac Youth Group leader. Parents need to email coeliacsbucksyouth@gmail.com to put their coeliac child's name on the goody bag list; it doesn't matter where coeliac families live to be able to join in. Only under 18 coeliacs get a pre-booked goody bag.

3) Network with other coeliac families

Parents must purchase their own entry tickets to the festival. £4 in advance on Ticketsource / £5 on the door. Under 16s are FREE with a paying adult.

The other gluten free baking demo will be:

11:45 - 12:30 Howard from series 4 of Bake Off making GF Chocolate Swiss Roll

2 market stalls will have gluten free food: fudge by Mummy Makes Fudge and homemade gourmet Asian sauces (which have been tested to check they're gluten free) by Mei’s Homemade. There are also sweets/food themed key rings and earrings by Sweetiechic.
