1st Line Defence staff have been working hard behind the scenes preparing for Macmillan’s Coffee Morning, which is the charity’s biggest fundraising event for people fighting cancer.
People all over the UK host their own Coffee Mornings and last year alone this raised an incredible £27,461,814, and together we can make 2022 another successful year!
How did it all begin?
The first ever Coffee Morning happened way back in 1990 – it was a small affair with a simple idea – guests would gather over coffee and donate the cost of their cuppa to Macmillan in the process.
It was so effective they did it again the next year, only this time nationally – and since then the Coffee Morning has raised over £200 million for Macmillan.
Why did we do it?
Having a Coffee Morning is the perfect chance to catch up with colleagues over a cuppa and a slice of something scrumptious – expecially when its for such a great cause.
One in two of us will face cancer at some point in our lifetime and the money raised at this Coffee Morning will help make sure no one has to face it alone.
We are pleased to announce that 1st Line Defence raised over £85 in donations and we wanted to say thank you to all of the Team for your continued support.
