One of the organisers said: “We weren’t expecting to exceed last year’s total, but this parish is an amazing and very supportive place and sadly there is hardly anyone who hasn’t in some way been touched by cancer, or indeed made use of Macmillan.

"This year we had a new stall in Garners Field, and that proved to be very popular. We are grateful to everyone who ran or helped on one of the four stalls, baked, and donated”.
