Macmillan coffee morning at Five Oaks care home raises funds for cancer care

13 October 2025

A recent Macmillan Coffee Morning at Five Oaks care home in Barnet raised £270 for Macmillan Cancer Support.

The UK’s leading cancer charity provides specialist health care, information and financial support to people affected by cancer. Macmillan also looks at the social, emotional and practical impact cancer can have, and campaigns for better cancer care.

“Macmillan does such amazing work, and we knew our coffee morning in support of the charity would be popular,” said Five Oaks care home manager, Rahima Mulindwa

Residents, relatives, staff and healthcare professionals enjoyed a sumptuous spread of cakes, pastries, tea and coffee. “We had a fantastic turnout – the car park was full and the room was buzzing with conversation and laughter,” said Rahima.

“We’re so grateful to everyone who attended for their generosity and support. Thanks to them, we raised an amazing £270. It’s truly inspiring to see how a great cause can bring so many people together.”
