​On Thursday, the Aspire team at our Sutton Office spent their time baking and donating for an amazing cause. We are all about people, passion and of course a bit of cake - so when it came to the Macmillan Cancer Support, we of course had to host our annual coffee morning!

​

💚Why Macmillan?

Macmillan is a charity close to many of our hearts, and is one of Britain's largest and most successful charities. They do incredible work supporting people living with cancer — offering not just medical/financial care for those affected by cancer, but also emotional and practical help when it's needed most. Of course we wanted to do our bit for such an amazing organisation, and what's a better way to show our support by a bit of healthy (unhealthy) competition?

🍰The Bake Off.

From brownies, spiced apple cake, carrot cake, lemon drizzles and a confetti cake, everyone brought their game and the results were amazing! Every dessert was baked with love and was all for such an amazing cause. The office smelt amazing, and after tasting everything on the table (we didn't thank ourselves for this afterwards) we voted for our favourite. Either way, everyone was a winner as we raised money, had fun and made a difference.

💪Some Other Ways People Support the Cause.

There are multiple different ways that people around the country raise money for Macmillan.

Darts Tournament- One of Macmillan's fundraisers include a 12 hour or 100,000 point dart game to raise money for men living with cancer. Some unbelievable, dedicated people have raised nearly £4,000 individually through this!

Mighty Hikes- The opportunity to take part in some scenic half or full marathon hikes. A fun way to spend time with friends, get fit and celebrate an amazing charity!

Sober October- One of Macmillan's popular fundraisers is taking part in a month alcohol free. Signing up to this will raise money that all gets donated to the cause.
