IT WILL be afternoon teal time in February with local groups icing their cupcakes in teal in support of ovarian cancer.
February is Ovarian Cancer Awareness month and people are being encouraged to host afternoon teal parties to raise awareness and funds for women and families living with ovarian cancer.
The colour can be used in baking, but also in other merchandise and at high teas, golf days and dinners.

Teal is the international colour for ovarian cancer.
Ovarian Cancer Australia provides specialised support to those affected by ovarian cancer, through support groups, phone support and online resources.
This year, Ovarian Cancer Australia aims to raise $500,000.
Registrations for teal parties can be made on afternoonteal.net.au and those registering will be sent an afternoon teal kit.
