Brockwell Court Care Home in Consett hosted a thriving community coffee morning, resulting in an impressive fundraising total of £137 for Macmillan Cancer Support.
Members of the local community also joined residents and team members at the care home for a cuppa and a chat and to enjoy a selection of delicious cakes while raising money for Macmillan. They were joined by special guest Kathryn Rooney, who works hard in her local community fundraising for charity.
In the week leading up to the big day, the home’s chefs helped residents perfect their cakes and bakes and residents also made decorations in their arts & crafts activities.
“It has been a wonderful turnout.”
Sarah, Senior Carer
Home Manager Becca Boyle said: “We’re all very keen to help raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support as it is a cause close to many of our hearts. Our residents love getting involved with their local community and had a wonderful time meeting new friends and of course, it was a great excuse to eat far too much cake!”
