Leech Brews up for Macmillan Nurses

September 28, 2007 4:00 PM

This morning Withington MP John Leech joined Manchester Council staff and residents to raise money for cancer sufferers across the City. John attended the Macmillan Cancer Support's 'World's Biggest Coffee Morning' in Manchester Town Hall as part of Macmillan's Annual Fundraiser. It was one of hundreds of similar events happening across the country.

John Leech, said:

"Cancer is a modern day epidemic. Currently, 740 people per day are diagnosed with cancer, and almost everyone knows someone who has been affected by the disease."

"Macmillan Cancer Support is there for people from the moment they are diagnosed, with practical help and support. Last year over £6.8 million was raised in the UK. I hope that we can do even better this year and help Macmillan to help more people affected by cancer."

ENDS

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
