Local MSP, Kenneth Gibson, is set to host a coffee morning in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

The coffee morning will take place at Roserdean Hall in Dalry on Friday, September 27.

This is the 13th successive year that the MSP has hosted the fundraising event, which raises thousands of pounds for vital cancer research.

Last year, Macmillan Cancer Support raised over £26 million from their flagship event ‘The World’s Biggest Coffee Morning.’

Mr Gibson said: “The work Macmillan does to support the lives of people with cancer is immeasurable and 99 per cent of their funding comes from donations.

“Folk who come round to Rosearden Hall for a cuppa and some home baking will be warmly welcomed.”

Entry is £2.50 and doors will open at 10am.
