World's Biggest Coffe Morning

Put a smile on your mug!
Get together with friends, family and colleagues on Friday 24 September and raise some money for people affected by cancer.

The World's Biggest Coffee Morning is Macmillan Cancer Support's biggest fundraising event. We ask people across the UK - and sometimes further afield - to hold a coffee morning, where donations on the day are made to Macmillan.

Last year 43,000 people registered to hold a coffee morning, raising £7.9 million
This year we need your help to raise over £8 million to help change the lives of people affected by cancer.

The event started in 1990, when a local fundraising committee decided to hold a coffee morning where people came along to meet and mingle - as they might ordinarily do - but donate the cost of their coffee to Macmillan in the process.

The idea seemed such a simple, yet effective, one that they suggested the model be taken up nationally. The first National World’s Biggest Coffee Morning was in 1991, when 2,600 people registered to hold coffee mornings across the country. Since then it has raised over £60 million in total for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Whatever you do, we hope you'll get together with friends, family and colleagues on Friday 24 September and raise some money (and a smile) for people affected by cancer.
