LITTLE HORWOOD BREAKFAST CAFE FUNDRAISER IN AID OF THE LEWIS FOUNDATION
?Huge thank you to the Little Horwood Breakfast Cafe who reached out to support our charity The Lewis Foundation to help raise funds to give back to the community through the gifting of our packs to cancer patients in hospital. See the team in the picture above. We had provided our packs on the cancer ward to Kerry (the lady to the right of our Co-Founder Lorraine Lewis BCAh) husband Chris in Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust before he passed away. In his memory the local community of Little Horwood dedicated their Saturday morning Breakfast Cafe to raise funds for our charity. They raised an incredible £1445 in the process to help support others diagnosed with cancer. The funds raised means we can help others in hospital following their cancer diagnosis in Chris’s memory. It means a lot to us and most definitely will to the patients and their family on the receiving end of this legacy donation.
