Sixth Form lead Macmillan Coffee Morning

We are thrilled to announce that this year’s Macmillan Coffee Morning, led by our dedicated Year 13 volunteers, has been the most successful to date. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our whole school community, we managed to raise an outstanding total of £1,660 for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Held in September, the annual coffee morning has become a much-anticipated event in our school calendar, bringing together students, staff and families for a cause that touches many lives. This year’s gathering was no exception, with an abundance of home-baked cakes, pastries and biscuits on offer, all donated by members of the school community. Our talented Year 13 volunteers were instrumental in ensuring the event ran smoothly, from setting up the event to serving refreshments with a smile.

The funds raised will help Macmillan’s incredible team of nurses and healthcare professionals continue their vital work supporting individuals and families affected by cancer. Macmillan Cancer Support provides expert medical care, emotional support, and practical advice for people living with cancer and their loved ones, and also funds critical research into better treatments.

Head of Sixth Form, Mrs Hilton, expressed her pride in the students’ efforts, stating: “It is heartwarming to see our Year 13 students stepping up to lead this important event. Their hard work, dedication and enthusiasm reflect the values we strive to instil at Bridgewater – a sense of community, empathy and social responsibility.”

We extend our thanks to everyone who contributed, whether by donating baked goods, volunteering time, or simply attending the event. Your generosity has made a real difference, and we are proud to support Macmillan Cancer Support in their mission to improve the lives of all those affected by cancer.
