We Hosted A Macmillan Coffee Morning

30-09-2016

M&N Heating & Plumbing joined in with the World's Biggest Coffee Morning, hosting our own event to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Many M&N staff members have benefitted from the wonderful care and support that Macmillan offer, and we're happy to support the World's Biggest Coffee Morning as it's a cause close to our hearts. We were joined in support by Tibbetts Group Company, who are also on the Vantage Business Park.

Staff, suppliers and customers joined us for cake and fundraising activities, including several fundraising competitions such as Lucky Square, Spot the Cake and Best Baked Cake!

For those without a sweet tooth, we offered savoury options including bacon rolls, sausage rolls, scones and cheese twists.

Best Baked Cake Competition

In conjunction with Tibbetts Group Company, we ran a competition where people voted for their favourite cake. The top 5 cakes voted entered a social media voting competitiong on our Facebook page to decide the Best Baked Cake!

Cakes were selling for £1.50 a slice. The following cakes reached the final vote and Facebook users had the opportunity to Like their favourite over the weekend with the voting closing at 12pm on Monday 3rd October.

• Chocolate Fudge Cake - 5 votes
• Coffee & Walnut Cake - 3 votes
• Devil's Chocolate Cake - 12 votes
• Lemon Drizzle Cake - 6 votes
• Marble Cake - 11 votes

With 12 Facebook likes, the Devil's Chocolate Cake won the Best Baked Cake Competition, with Abbie winning the bottle of bubbly - congratulations Abbie!

We also ran a Lucky Square competition where you picked a square on a 10x10 grid for £1 a go. The winners are listed below:
