Belong Wigan Raises Funds with the Community

This year, Belong Wigan wanted to do something a bit different for their Macmillan World's Biggest Coffee Morning. The village's experience team consulted with their residents and apartment tenants who agreed they wanted to invite their friends from Platt Bridge Community Centre. Belong Wigan customers can often be found at the centre, enjoying bowls, bingo, shuffleboard and many of the activities available.

Customers wanted to share the special fundraiser with their friends and so welcomed them with open arms to join them for their coffee morning, featuring a fun raffle, a (lively) game of bingo, plenty of cuppas and of course, delicious cakes!

Charlene Frodsham, experience coordinator at Belong Wigan, said: "It was a fabulous morning, full of smiles, laughter, and community spirit – all while supporting such an amazing cause. We raised £236 and it was wonderful to have the Platt Bridge community as our guests. A big thank you to everyone who joined in and made it so special!"
