More Than £300 Raised For Charity Thanks To Network Ryde Coffee Morning

More than £300 has been raised for Macmillan Cancer Support thanks to a coffee morning organised by Network Ryde.

Ryde Town Council’s youth service held its annual Macmillan Coffee Morning last Saturday (25).

Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, last year’s coffee morning could not go ahead so the charity was determined to make this year extra special.

There were lots of baked goods made and donated by young people, staff and friends of Network Ryde.

A group of young people who access Network Ryde were there for the duration of the day helping out, washing up, waiting tables, taking orders and leafleting/spreading the word around town.

Some young people who baked for the coffee morning also used their bakes towards their Duke of Edinburgh’s Award as they have baking / cooking down for their skill section.

Maiya Dixon (Session Lead at Network Ryde) said:

'After a busy day with lots of donations, Network Ryde raised an amazing £317 for Macmillan Cancer Support! This is a fantastic achievement for Macmillan and has also raised the awareness of Network Ryde and the services they offer, supporting the Island’s young people.'
