**SCHOOLS ARE being asked to** send pictures of home-baked rainbow cakes to raise awareness during National Anti-Bullying week, November 17-21, 2014.

This year the theme is *‘creatively dealing with bullying’* so what better way to get involved than to bake a glorious rainbow cake!

Judges of the Great Rainbow Bake-off 2014 include Elly Barnes CEO and Founder of *Educate & Celebrate*, Scott Nunn, Director of Gay Star News and special celebrity guests!

The 10 winning entries will be asked to comment on why anti-bullying week is important to them, have a taste score sheet filled in by their teachers and then have their cake photograph published in Gay Star News.

**The competition is open to schools from all over the world!**

*Educate & Celebrate* have a proven recipe for success to ensure schools can respond effectively to bullying and discrimination by creating LGBT-Friendly schools and workplaces. Their work is at the forefront of challenging homophobia, biphobia and transphobia and is recognised by Ofsted as *best practice*.

**Elly Barnes the CEO and Founder said:** *“We have a long way to go in our campaign for LGBT-Inclusion, our research shows that 72% of teachers would welcome further training on LGBT issues in their own classrooms and 82% of students use homophobic language on a daily basis. The rainbow is the most recognisable and enduring image of the struggle for LGBT equality around the world which why using this colourful symbol in a creative way will be fun and accessible to all – I am so looking forward to choosing the stunning ‘star bakers!”*

The top 10 bakers who receive the most votes from their photographs in Gay Star News will then be invited to a LIVE bake-off hosted by *Educate & Celebrate* for LGBT History Month Celebrations in February 2015.

To enter, email a photograph of your rainbow cake (or cakes e.g. cupcakes) during National Anti-Bullying week November 17-21, 2014 to: [juliebremner@educateandcelebrate.org](mailto:juliebremner@educateandcelebrate.org) or tweet @educatecelebrat using #rainbowbakeoff #GRBO

*Educate & Celebrate* gives teachers the confidence and resources to challenge homophobia, biphobia and transphobia by engaging students, staff and parents.
