1st Homecare Leighton Buzzard raises money for Macmillan Cancer Support
May 1, 2024
On April 30th, our Leighton Buzzard branch held a Macmillan Coffee Morning at its office in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support and raised £326.68! This amount will pay for a Macmillan nurse for one day, helping people living with cancer and their families receive medical and emotional support, and also pays for more than 3 hours of the Macmillan Online Community forum, which allows people affected by cancer to support each other with anything from treatments to the death of a loved one. One of our clients, Marion, who came along to support the event, was the judge of the best cake and the best “fake”, and awarded these to Payroll Manager Emma and Director and owner Annabella. After the event, Registered Manager Emma and Director Annabella visited local offices with the remaining cakes and people who hadn’t been able to make the event were happy to take some cakes and give a donation. The team were really delighted that their efforts resulted in raising such a good sum, Registered Manager Emma said: “ Yesterday was a real success, it was lovely to see clients, friends and family and local businesses attend the event to help raise money for such an amazing cause and we were delighted to have raised so much.”
