Events at town shop supporting cancer cause

FAMILIES can help raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support and get back into the school spirit at the Wilkinson shop in Kenilworth today (Friday) and tomorrow.

Staff at the branch in Station Road, which has already held two fundraising events for the charity this year, are dressing up in school uniform and inviting customers to take part in a ‘back to school’-themed tombola, prizes for which include pencil cases, folders and notepads, while children can also take part in a lucky dip from 11am on both days to win more items.

Store manager Paula Clarke said: “The whole team is incredibly pleased to be supporting Macmillan Cancer Support as our regional charity of the year.

“It is a great cause and the charity makes a valuable contribution to the local community.”

All funds raised at the events will go towards the charity, which depends on donations for 90 per cent of its income. To find out more about Macmillan, call 0808 808 0000 or go online.
