A local dental practice in Fulham is preparing to host a charity event in support of Macmillan Cancer Support. Blue Finch Dental will hold a special coffee afternoon on Saturday, October 12th, from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM at its North End Road location. The event is part of the nationwide Macmillan Coffee Morning initiative, aimed at raising funds to support individuals and families affected by cancer.
The coffee afternoon offers residents an opportunity to enjoy tea, coffee, and cakes while contributing to a meaningful cause. All proceeds will go directly to Macmillan Cancer Support, a charity that provides a wide range of services, including physical, emotional, and financial assistance, to those affected by cancer.
Speaking ahead of the event, Dr Timothy Neill, lead dentist at Blue Finch Dental, expressed the practice’s enthusiasm for participating in this initiative. “We’re proud to support Macmillan Cancer Support and hope to make a meaningful contribution through this event,” he said. “We warmly invite all members of the Fulham community to join us for a relaxed afternoon of coffee, cakes, and conversation.”
Dr Neill also extended an invitation to those curious about the dental practice itself. “If there are any questions about our services or if anyone is interested in learning more about the equipment we use, our team will be more than happy to provide some insights.”
The Macmillan Coffee Morning is an annual fundraising event held across the UK. Since its inception in 1990, it has become one of the most popular charity events in the country, with thousands of similar gatherings held in workplaces, schools, and homes nationwide. The funds raised ensure Macmillan can continue offering essential services to cancer patients and their families.
Entry to the Blue Finch Dental event is free, but attendees are encouraged to make a donation by purchasing coffee and cakes, with prices starting at £2. The practice hopes to attract a diverse group of attendees, whether regular patients, local residents, or those passing by, with the ultimate aim of raising as much money as possible for the cause.
Macmillan Cancer Support has been a vital resource for individuals and families living with cancer in the UK, providing not only medical guidance but also much-needed emotional support. The charity’s work ensures that people with cancer do not have to face their challenges alone.
The Blue Finch Dental team has expressed its gratitude to the Fulham community for its anticipated support, hoping to bring people together in the spirit of generosity and solidarity. “Whether you’re a patient or a neighbour, we’d love to see you here on October 12th,” Dr Neill added. “Your contribution, no matter how small, can make a huge difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.”
The charity coffee afternoon will take place at Blue Finch Dental, located at 461-465 North End Road, Fulham. Doors will open at 3:30 PM, with coffee and cakes available for purchase until 5:00 PM. All proceeds will be donated to Macmillan Cancer Support to help the charity continue its important work across the UK.
