Southport coffee morning in aid of local cancer research charity
A fundraising committee from Southport is inviting the local community to join them for a Coffee Morning to raise funds for the region's leading cancer charity. Organised by the Southport Committee of North West Cancer Research (NWCR), the annual spring Coffee Morning will take place on Monday, 11 May 2015, at Masonic Hall, on Duke Street, Southport, from 10am onwards. Tickets cost:- £3.50 and are available to purchase on the door and from committee chair, Olive Cutts, on:- 01704 807 857. A choice of coffee or tea with a slice of homemade cake is included in the ticket price. All proceeds from the event will be donated to NWCR to help facilitate cancer research in the North West including that at nearby University of Liverpool. It is hoped as many people as possible will attend to show their support for the charity. Those who do will enjoy a demonstration by Annette Leefe from The Pampered Chef who will be giving guests the chance to test the latest Pampered Chef equipment and a range of great tasting, easy to prepare recipes. NWCR funds research projects which help to increase our understanding of cancer and how to better detect, treat and prevent it. This year the charity has already announced around £1.4million worth of funding for research at University of Liverpool, Bangor University and Lancaster University.
