28 Sep Macmillan coffee morning at HRJ Foreman Laws
On 27 September, our hardworking employees stopped for a moment to take part in our Macmillan coffee morning. As well as enjoying the time to get together to chat about our day over a cake and a cuppa, we raised £500 for Macmillan Cancer Support.
Our Macmillan coffee morning also revealed a surprising wealth of baking talent in the firm. This included some truly exceptional skills from the mums of some of our colleagues, who kindly donated the cakes.
The event is to help the Macmillan Cancer Support’s efforts to raise funds and awareness for those affected by cancer. Donations from thousands of Coffee Mornings, big and small, help raise vital funds to support the 3 million people in the UK living with cancer, from the moment they are diagnosed.
From Macmillan Cancer Support
“Macmillan is 98% funded by voluntary donations, so your contribution is essential to ensure they can provide practical, emotional and financial support to people living with cancer when they need it. Right now, there are more than 3 million people in the UK living with cancer. Donations from Coffee Mornings make a vital difference, helping Macmillan continue their services so people can find their best way through, from the moment they’re diagnosed, through treatment and beyond.”
