Jubilant June

Last week’s Flitch Way Walk was a massive success, bringing in over 130 people. The weather behaved well, and nobody found themselves completely drenched in rain. Just sweat, then!
When one events ends, another one begins. Coming up on June 19th, we’ve got the Macmillan 10K Fun-Run, which is still in need of volunteers, so if you’re interested in being a part of something big, call 020 7840 4867.
Are you running low on fundraising ideas? Now what with the lack of public holidays, it may be difficult to think up events to raise money for. We’ve put a few together to get you started for June, bearing in mind that this month’s focus is on giving thanks to those that have helped or inspired us, as sometimes the message can say more than the money. See if you can conjure up any more!
1)       Send the Biggest Thank You
        Why not get techie and declare your gratitude to the world by adding a message to biggestthankyou.org.uk? It’s a new website for our centenary year that’s dedicated purely to public thank yous. Head there today, upload your photo and let the thanking begin.

2)      Get Arty
Get your creative juices flowing and find a decorative way to say thanks. It could be as intricate as a cross-stitched, framed thank you note (you crafty person, you), or as easy as a doodle to pin up on a desk. Whatever it is, it will be utterly unique.

3)      Say It with an eCard
 It's free to send a Macmillan eCard and it’s sure to put a smile on your recipient’s face. What's more, if you choose to make a donation when you send one, you'll be helping support people affected by cancer too. Everyone’s a winner. Sending an eCard is easy – just head to macmillan.org.uk/donate/ecards.
If you have any suggestions, or would just like to contact us regarding anything at all, call 01245345280 or give us a tweet at @MacmillanAnglia!
