Maggie’s lunch tickets on sale

Cancer charity Maggie’s are holding a fundraiser in the Bothwell Bridge Hotel on Sunday, June 11.

Their annual Love Maggie’s Love Lunch will take place between noon and 5pm. Comedian and radio presenter Des Clarke will return and there will also be entertainment from The Fundamentals.

On last year’s event, Des said:“it was a great day out raising money for a brilliant cause, so I’m delighted to be part of it again this year.”

Built in the grounds of Monklands Hospital, Maggie’s Lanarkshire has qualified professionals on hand to offer an evidence-based core programme of support that has been shown to improve physical and emotional wellbeing.

Maggie’s Lanarkshire relies on voluntary donations to develop its unique, high quality programme of support. The charity’s aim is to make the biggest difference possible to people living with cancer and their family and friends.

Lorrie Forsyth, centre head at Maggie’s Lanarkshire, said:“our lunch is always a popular event and a fantastic way to raise the funds we need to continue to support people in finding their way through cancer.”

Tickets for the fundraiser are £40 per person or £400 for a table of 10 and include a glass of bubbly on arrival with a chance to buy items from stall-holders, three-course lunch and the opportunity to have a boogie. There will also be a raffle and auction at the lunch.
