Farmhouse Breakfast Week 2011

Farmhouse Breakfast Week (23-29 Jan 2011) is back for its twelfth year, with a brand new theme – “Shake Up Your Wake Up”. We’re challenging all breakfast skippers to rethink their morning routines, and make time for the most important meal of the day. As many as one in four consumers regularly skip breakfast, so we are keen to raise awareness of the benefits that can be gained by making that little bit extra time for breakfast.
