TOWN Mayor Liz Bennett took part in the Macmillan Trust’s Big Coffee Morning at the Queen Victoria hospital to raise money for the cancer charity.

The event raised more than  £1,000 towards improving the lives of people with cancer by providing practical, medical, emotional and financial support for patients.

Liz said: “The Macmillan Trust does wonderful work. I was very pleased to be able to support them, and I know they are grateful to everyone who took part in one of the local Big Coffee Mornings either at the QVH or elsewhere in the town.”

Town Mayor Liz Bennett also took tea with the residents of Great House Court in Fairfield Road, who gave very generous support to the appeal.
