Cake tastes even better when it supports an amazing cause.

This Friday from 10:00 am to 11:30 am, The Maltings Coffee Shop is hosting our Macmillan Coffee Morning, and we would love for you to join us.

Between 10:00 am and 11:30 am, the money raised from cake and traybake sales will go straight to Macmillan Cancer Support. Whether you are dropping in for your morning coffee run, meeting family for a treat, or picking up a box of bakes to take back to the office, your support helps make a tangible impact.

Bring your friends, bring your appetite, and help us support the incredible work Macmillan does every day.
