A Brighouse cafe has raised more than £1,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support by holding a Macmillan Coffee Morning.

Cafe 139 on Bradford Road, which is run mainly by volunteers from Cornerstone Church Brighouse, hosted the fundraiser.

Church member Arlene Raw said: “All the volunteers and our cafe manager Nat worked so hard to make it a huge success.

“The cafe was packed out all day and we managed to raise an amazing £1,088.42 for the charity.

"Bizzymitts, which is a local company run by Liz Barraclough who comes to our church, donated some of her beautiful baking related items to sell in aid of Macmillan.”
