THE GREAT STOP THE PRESSURE BAKE-OFF! In association with activheal and the tissue viability society.

This year’s Stop the Pressure has looked a little different with events and activities taking place online due to coronavirus. We wanted to get creative and more importantly, get people baking and talking about pressure ulcers.

We decided to host our own virtual bake-off challenge in association with the Tissue Viability Society. We asked our social media followers to get baking for a Stop the Pressure themed bake-off challenge!

You didn’t let us down, there are some incredibly talented bakers out there who shared their fantastic bakes with us and helped us raise awareness for this year’s event. You can see some of the tasty looking entries below!

Due to covid restrictions, unfortunately, we didn’t get to sample any of the lovely bakes, so judging was based on photos sent in of the cakes and bakes. Our esteemed judges were asked to pick an overall winner and three runners up who won prizes including a £50 Amazon voucher, ActivHeal goody bags and Lindt chocolates.

STOP the Pressure

STOP Pressure Ulcer Day is an annual event with activities taking place around the world with industry, healthcare professionals, the public and media all getting involved to help raise awareness of pressure ulcers.

Pressure ulcers affect many people each year, but with improved public knowledge, many could be avoided. The Tissue Viability Society, ActivHeal and other industry partners worked together to create some fantastic events including a Virtual Pub Quiz and an Online Resource Centre.
