Share a cuppa for cancer

There will be plenty of tea and sweet treats available at St Andrews Uniting Church after their Sunday service.

Once again, the church is hosting a Biggest Morning Tea, this time on Sunday, May 25.

After the morning service, anyone is welcome to pop by the church hall to share in some home-made goods, have a cup of tea or coffee and spend time in good company – all while raising funds for a worthwhile cause.

Organiser Carole Simpson is again hosting the morning tea with her team full of helpers, now in it’s 15th year.

“Anyone is welcome to join us at 10.30am to share a cuppa and some delicious food, and donate towards helping those affected by cancer,” she said.

The Biggest Morning Tea, while officially taking place on Thursday, May 22, a morning tea can be hosted on any date through May and June.

All funds raised will go towards the Cancer Council to help support bring Australia to a cancer free future.

So far, Mrs Simpson said they have raised $8660 since they began hosting the morning teas at the church.

The Biggest Morning Tea will take place at St Andrews Uniting Church hall, at the corner of Brook and Barkly Streets, Sunbury.

The morning tea will start at 10.30am, after the 9.30am service.
