Brits can still give generously despite cost of living crisis by digging for coins
You don’t have to dig deep to help - just check your coat pockets and handbags for forgotten coins and donate them to help make life more comfortable for people with cancer.
Pub and brewery group Greene King is launching its annual fundraising appeal for MacMillan Cancer Support and is encouraging customers to either round up their bill by 25p when they get a round in with card or contactless payments or pop a few coins into the collection tins displayed on bars in any of their 1,600 pubs.
The group aims to tackle the misplaced belief held by a third of the nation that anything less than £2 is not worth donating. It can help with paying associated bills and offers advice on treatment, managing hospital appointments and provides pastoral support and counselling.
