ROTHERHAM’S Macmillan marvels put the kettle on once again to help brew up a bumper total for charity.

Macmillan Cancer Support’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning saw workplaces, care homes, schools and charity supporters enjoying a drink and a snack for a good cause.

Most events were held on Friday but others took place a few days earlier.

Among those backing the initiative were The Cove Coffee House at the Full Life Church in Maltby; The Haynook Pub, Maltby; Ibis Hotel, Bramley; and Tesco in Wath.

Regular supporter and borough councillor Rose McNeely held hers in memory of husband Vince, while staff at Burrows Toyota in Rotherham raised £240 and a get-together at the New Life Church in Dinnington (below) collected £1,034.10.
