Coffee: Last Friday Burwash hosted two Macmillan coffee mornings. The first was held by the children of the Buzzy Bees pre-school in the Swan Meadow Pavilion where they raised over £100. The other was held in the Scout hut in the Bear car park organised by Margaret porter and friends and raised over £280 Well done to them both and thank you to everyone who went along to support them. Such a worthy cause.
