Macmillan Coffee Morning is celebrating 35 years of bringing people together to raise money for those living with cancer. Since 1990, the fundraising event has raised more than £300m for Macmillan Cancer Support. In 2024 alone, the charity provided vital support to around 2.4 million people affected by cancer across the UK.
The charity’s famous Coffee Morning event is a chance for people to get involved and donate to the cause. The idea is simple: bring baked treats for the group to eat while enjoying a cup of coffee or tea and ask everyone to donate money while having a good time. You can make it as wild or as simple as you like; whether it’s organised among teachers and parents at a school, a sober rave with a group of colleagues at work or in your living room with friends. And there’s no reason to stick to coffee and cakes, mix things up by organising a Coffee Morning with a difference.
