Virtual Macmillan coffee morning held at Henfield care home

Relatives and friends joined the residents and staff at Red Oaks via Zoom on Friday, September 25, for a bake-themed quiz, some singing, and a coffee – a sachet of which had been supplied to all participants beforehand by the care home.

They managed to raise £50 and, most importantly, everyone had a lot of fun doing it.

Linda Ryan, general manager at Red Oaks Care Home, said: “Holding our own virtual Macmillan coffee morning has been a huge amount of fun and everyone at the home is always keen to support this fantastic charity in any way we can.

“We are very glad to be able to do our bit to raise further awareness and money for the charity.”
