A RETIREMENT housing development has pledged to donate £5 for every visitor to its Macmillan coffee morning.

Churchill Living is inviting residents in West Kirby to enjoy coffee, cake, and company at its Coronation Lodge development on Grange Road, to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support this September.

The event, part of the charity's World's Biggest Coffee Morning campaign, is set to take place on Tuesday, October 1, from 10.30am to 12.30pm.

Churchill Living will donate £5 to Macmillan for every visitor who attends.

Since 2009, Churchill Living has raised over £730,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Bernadette Hennelly, Churchill's marketing manager, said: "We are delighted to be inviting people to our developments once again to support Macmillan’s World's Biggest Coffee Morning.

"These events are not only a fantastic way to raise money for a very worthwhile cause, but also an opportunity to get the local community together and show people what life with Churchill is all about.

"Our developments are for those who want to keep living entirely independently, but with a strong sense of community and security, and this event is an ideal opportunity for visitors to see first-hand the lifestyle on offer here.

"Many of our owners take advantage of the communal facilities, including the owners’ lounge where we hold regular coffee mornings and fun social events like this.

"We’ll be donating £5 for every visitor who attends the event, so we hope lots of local people will join us to help support this amazing charity."

Coronation Lodge is a collection of one and two-bedroom privately-owned retirement apartments designed for the over 60s.
