Longhurst Group and Longhurst
& Havelok Homes staff at Leverett House in Boston had their
cake and ate it, raising a mouth watering £800 for the
Macmillan Cancer Support charity.
Staff rolled up their sleeves and got their cake cases out to
support this year’s Macmillan Coffee Morning – the
world’s biggest coffee morning.
To celebrate, Sue Kirk, the Trustee of Macmillan Cancer Support,
will be presented with the £800 cheque from
Bob Walder, Longhurst Group Chief
Executive, and
Mike Hardy, Longhurst & Havelok Homes Managing Director, at
a special ceremony at the company’s Head Quarters in Boston
on Friday 27th November.
Sue said: “I would like to say a huge thank you to all of
the staff that contributed to the coffee morning. Their efforts
will make a huge difference to people affected by cancer in our
local area.”
Lorna Brown and Tessa Codd organised the event: "We're delighted to
support Macmillan. Not only has it been great fun but it also shows
how much we all like a bit of cake. In fact we’re already
looking forward to supporting next year’s coffee
morning.”
One in three people will get cancer but, as treatments improve,
more and more people are living with cancer in their daily
lives.
Macmillan Cancer Support improves the lives of people affected by
cancer by providing practical, medical and financial support and a
push for better cancer care.
