On Wednesday 24 September, Winton House was one of the organisations holding a coffee morning for Macmillan, the cancer support charity.
The topic was serious but the mood was light as people expressed their thanks to Macmillan. Some people had baked, volunteers served and everyone had cake!
Well nearly everyone; the Chair of Age Concern Petersfield, Rosemary Harris, admitted to starting her 5:2 diet that day so the cake was bought for tomorrow! She spoke about why Age Concern Petersfield was supporting Macmillan.
Mike Waddington spoke to people enjoying the atmosphere, meeting their friends and remembering - with cake!
Many related their own experiences of cancer and the support Macmilllan gave.
Almost £300 was raised.
Lawyers Mackarness and Lunt have theirs on Tuesday 30 September from 10am to 3pm, on the High Street.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
