Sep 22 - Cancer Relief Coffee Morning
Once again this year Cancer Relief Gibraltar is celebrating Gibraltar’s Biggest Coffee Morning on Friday 29th September at the Calpe Rowing Club, Europort Road from 10am to 1pm.
Everyone is invited to enjoy a cuppa with a sandwich and cake with friends and family and help raise funds in one of the charity’s major fund-raising events.
A spokesperson said: “There are so many in the community who suffer from cancer and need help. The Cancer Relief Centre supported 228 people in 2016; this means that every week about 70 persons (both patients and families) used one or more of the Centre’s services. In order to achieve this level of care the charity has four full-time nurses, an administrator and a part-time Cancer Relief Nurse with a special interest in oncology as well as an amazing team of volunteers.
“It costs the charity over £20,000 a month to provide this care; as the demand for services has increased so have the costs. This is why fund-raising is so important to keep the good work going. Cancer Relief’s goal is to make sure that no one has to face cancer alone. Please help raise more funds so that this valuable work can continue. Pop in for a ‘cuppa’ or take your lunch break with Cancer Relief (sandwiches available). For more information on the services offered by Cancer Relief Gibraltar please visit their website.”
