THIS year's World's Biggest Coffee Morning in aid of Macmillan Cancer Relief saw several groups of people across Bordon and Whitehill gather together for a cup of coffee and fundraising. Amery Veterinary Group raised more than £120 for Macmillan nurses, after taking part in the coffee morning last Thursday. The event was held at the the Grayshott branch of the vets, in Crossways Road, Grayshott. Colleagues and friends enjoyed coffee and cake, provided by members of staff, with the help of donations from the Applegarth Farm Shop. The Bordon and Oakhanger Sports Club held a coffee morning on Friday, September 28, which was followed with a quiz night and a raffle in the evening. Some £310 was raised by the sports club, which also ran a game of name the teddy. The winning name was announced as Julie Walters. During the same day, the Chase Hospital League of Friends got together to have a coffee morning and a bring-and-buy sale. Norma Scott from the league of friends said: "It was a good day, and we raised more than £130. We have taken part in the event for the last few years, because we all know someone that has had support from the Macmillan Nurses. They do such a great job, so it's nice to able to help in some way."
