It's a morning for coffee and cake!




Kettles were boiling and cakes being served around South Holland as the area embraced Macmillan Cancer Support's World's Biggest Coffee Morning.

First to pour the drinks was Spalding Bakery in Fulney Lane, who held their event last Friday, September 21 and raised £230.13 from a cake sale.

Prolific fundraiser Lorna Webb and her team of helpers held an event in her Pinchbeck home on Thursday, selling cakes and preserves, plants and vegetables and a raffle.

Also on Thursday, Weston St Mary Church of England Primary School held an event and raised more than £60 - pretty good for a school with just 28 pupils.

Meanwhile the Crown Affair hairdressers and beauty salon in New Road, Spalding held their own fundraiser on Thursday, with Susan Willsea having her hair shaved off for Macmillan.

St Paul's County Primary School in Spalding held their event on Friday, with an afternoon tea.

Other events on Friday were held at Sutton St James Primary School, Spalding Library, West Pinchbeck Village Hall, the Butters shop in Kellett Gate, Spalding, and Holbeach Primary Academy.

An event at Broadgate Homes's St John's Circus development also proved very popular, with an ice cream complementing the usual coffee and cakes.

Macmillan member Lorraine Buckingham held a coffee morning at the Red Lion pub in Spalding. A fantastic £1,070 was raised from coffee, cakes and a raffle and Steve Grimston ‘braved the shave’, raising £345 with more to come in.
