People in Taunton have been invited to Churchill Living's Riverain Lodge to enjoy coffee, cake, and company in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

The event, part of the charity’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning campaign, will take place on September 27 from 10.30am to 12.30pm.

Visitors will be treated to coffee, cakes, and biscuits in the Owners’ Lounge.

Churchill Living will donate £5 to Macmillan for every visitor who attends.

Since 2009, Churchill Living has raised over £730,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support.

Caroline Haswell, senior marketing manager at Churchill, said: "We are delighted to be inviting people to our developments once again to support Macmillan’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning.

"These events are not only a fantastic way to raise money for a very worthwhile cause, but also an opportunity to get the local community together and show people what life with Churchill is all about.

"We’ll be donating £5 for every visitor who attends the event, so we hope lots of local people will join us to help support this amazing charity."

Riverain Lodge is a collection of one and two-bedroom privately-owned retirement apartments.

Each apartment is designed for the over 60s and has safety and security features, such as a 24-hour emergency call line and a video entry system.

Ms Haswell added: "Our developments are for those who want to keep living entirely independently, but with a strong sense of community and security, and this event is an ideal opportunity for visitors to see first-hand the lifestyle on offer here."
