MACMILLAN Wales would like to invite all of your readers to take part in our World’s Biggest Coffee Morning on Friday, September 25– the 25th year of the event.

Last year, more than 10,700 coffee mornings were held in homes and workplaces all over Wales, helping to raise an amazing UK-wide total of just over £25 million to help us support people affected by cancer.

Macmillan invested more than £7.5million in our services in Wales in 2014 to help people affected by cancer, including funding our nurses, physiotherapists, welfare benefits advisers, and our information and support centres in some of Wales’ hospitals.

Today in Wales more than 130,000 people are living with and beyond cancer and the money you raise will help Macmillan fund specialist nurses and grants to support people living with cancer who have financial problems.

We think that cake tastes better together so why not organise a coffee morning with family, friends or colleagues and enjoy cakes and a coffee? It’s a delicious way of raising money and will help us reach more people affected by cancer.

It isn’t too late to register for your free Coffee Morning Kit. Simply visit coffee.macmillan.org.uk, call 0845 602 1246 or text SEPT to 70550
