Nearly 150 people attended Ludlow Cancer Support Group’s Macmillan Coffee Morning at the Parish Centre, St. Peter’s Church, on Friday 27 September.

Visitors enjoyed coffee and home-made cake, and additional attractions included a tombola, a sales table, guess the number of sweets in the jar, and name the teddy – he was called Harold.

The event was an outstanding success, and raised £1,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support.

The Ludlow Cancer Support Group was set up in July 2014 aim is to offer help and support to people suffering from cancer in the Ludlow area, and meets fortnightly in the Parish Centre in St Peter’s Church, Ludlow, with meetings starting at 11am and running until 12.45pm.

Membership of the group is free to people (and their carers, relatives and friends) who have been diagnosed with cancer, regardless of how long ago the diagnosis was made.

In April this year Ludlow Cancer Support Group was presented with the King's Award for Voluntary Service by HRH Princess Anne
