Banff & Buchan MSP Stewart Stevenson has lent his support to the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning which is being held this Friday (24th) by Macmillan Cancer Support with the aim of raising £8 million to help change the lives of people affected by cancer. Last year, 43,000 coffee mornings were held raising £7.9 million and this year’s event aims to go further still.
Commenting, Mr Stevenson said:
“Events like the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning are an excellent way for everyone to come together and help raise money for a cause that helps vast numbers of people around the country. It has gone from strength to strength over the years and I am delighted that it is now aiming to raise such a substantial sum.
“Sadly almost everyone will know someone whose life has been affected by cancer, but the work that Macmillan Cancer Support does is invaluable in improving their circumstances and is a cause thoroughly worth backing.
“This Friday, I would encourage people throughout Banff & Buchan to put the kettle on and help raise money to help people whose lives have been affected by cancer.”
