Here's a #FridayFundraiser to warm our hearts on a frosty day! Meet Olivia and her friends Lola, Evie, Emi-Leigh, Leo and Theo. Olivia organised a PJ Day at her school, East Crompton St James CE Primary, because she wants to help Maggie's. Olivia regularly pops into Maggie's with her Mum Jo, and her baby brother, Thomas. She is our cutest and most persuasive(!) ambassador, telling anyone who will listen that she wants to "make sure that Maggie's stays open for families who might need help". Olivia, you're a complete superstar with the biggest of hearts. Thank you to you and all of your friends and teachers at school for doing something so amazing for Maggie's - you should all be very proud of yourselves.

At the heart of every Maggie's Centre is our kitchen table. Why not follow in Diane’s footsteps and host your own Kitchen Table Day event for Maggie’s on Friday 27th April?! "I attended a fantastic Kitchen Table Day event last year, which inspired me to challenge myself this year to host my own curry night as I'm absolutely rubbish at cooking! My friends are holding their own Kitchen Table Day event during the day, they’ve promised me lots of delicious cake(!), and then we will meet at mine in the evening for some curry! It's a great way to meet friends and socialise. Many of my friends have gone through cancer themselves and have found the support offered at Maggie's so valuable. The statistics are scary, so many people are affected. But Kitchen Table Day is an amazing way to give something back." Let's gather together and raise money for people with cancer. From dinner parties and games nights, to coffee mornings and bake sales, the choice is yours! You can sign up for you FREE fundraising pack below: https://www.maggiescentres.org/campaigns/kitchen-table-day/ Please share and get in touch to let us know your plans!
