SOLICITORS from Halesowen will be swapping their legal briefs for baking tins and creating Halloween-themed cakes which will be sold in aid of children’s charity Barnardo’s next Friday.

QS Talbot will be hosting a special coffee morning between 10am and noon at the Hagley Road office and are inviting members of the public to come along and try their home-baked cakes.

Photographs of the budding bakers’ creations as part of the Hallowgreen Big Bake will then be uploaded to a website for members of the public to vote for their favourite and decide who will scoop the national QualitySolicitors Star Baker title.

Everyone casting a vote on www.bakeoff.qualitysolicitors.com will get a chance to win a baking set.

Barnardo’s works with QS Solicitors across the country to run a gifts in wills scheme, through which people aged over 55, who intend to leave a bequest to the charity, can write their wills at no cost.
