People all over the UK host their own Coffee Mornings and donations on the day are made to Macmillan, in order to support them as a charity. Events such as the coffee morning are a real driving force for Macmillan as it helped them raise an incredible £27.5 million in 2019. With these past months being extremely difficult for those affected by cancer, Moore (South) wanted to make a real effort in aid of Macmillan who do such great work in supporting those affected. Moore (South) s Isle of Wight office spent a morning delivering cakes from the Island Cake Studio to local businesses at a safe distance,in return for a donation to Macmillan cancer charity.
