Macmillan Cancer Support’s biggest fundraising event is returning this autumn with a number of coffee mornings taking place in library branches across Mid and East Antrim.

Founded in 1990, Macmillan coffee mornings help support the almost 3.5 million people with cancer in the UK to live life as fully as they can.

This can be through treatment from Macmillan nurses, help with money and the extra and unexpected costs that living with cancer can bring, emotional support through the Macmillan Support Line, and much more.

They usually take place on the last Friday of September each year, although they can be hosted at any time of the year.
