One of the coffee mornings, which took place at the @TheGrange community hub on Bathhurst Avenue on Friday, raised more than £400 for the cancer charity.

@TheGrange community development manager Cath Powell said: “We do quite a bit with Macmillan. We do an evening once a month where we do a gardening class for people who are survivors of cancer.

Students and teachers at Baines School, in Poulton, took part in a ‘bake-off’ for their own coffee morning.

And in Fleetwood, the PTA at St Wulstan’s and St Edmund’s Catholic Primary School organised a coffee morning in the school hall that raised around £600. PTA chairman Leanne Fryer said: “It was a really successful event and to raise that much in such a short time is a massive achievement for the school.”
