JT Hughes Pledges to Help Macmillan Raise Even More to Fight Cancer

JT Hughes will open its showroom doors to host Macmillan Cancer Support’s World Biggest Coffee Morning, raising vital funds for local services within Shropshire in October and pledging to help the charity raise even more this year.

JT Hughes is the official dealership for Hyundai, Honda and Mitsubishi across Shropshire and mid Wales, with showrooms in Telford, Shrewsbury and Newtown, and it will be welcoming customers both old and new between 10am and 4pm on Thursday 6th October to come along and have a ‘cuppa’ and a piece of homemade cake in order support this very worthy cause.

John Hughes says “I’m delighted that all of the teams across JT Hughes are so keen to support Macmillan, with so many people being affected by cancer it is important that we do what we can to raise vital funds.

It will be a pleasure to welcome people to our friendly showrooms and I know that we will make a positive difference.  Last year alone Macmillan raised over £25 million to fight cancer and we want to do our bit to help them raise even more this year.”

Helen Knight Fundraising Manager - “There are currently 17,000 people living with Cancer today in Shropshire, and we are delighted that a business such as J T Hughes are supporting Macmillan by raising funds and inviting their customers to The World’s Biggest Coffee Morning, it is such a great way to get people involved.

As more & more people are being diagnosed with cancer earlier, it is essential that we continue to support families and friends through these times and we can do this through our services in Shropshire. Thank you to J T Hughes for your continue support”.
