Cardwell Garden Centre customers raised over £500 for a national cancer charity

Attendees at the garden centre on Cloch Road in Gourock received a free cuppa when they made a small donation to MacMillan Cancer Support.

The Patio Restaurant was bustling with visitors keen to support the good cause, and manager Bernadette Sime is delighted to hand over the sum of £510.

She told the Tele: "This is our eighth year running the coffee morning, we weren't sure how it would go this year all things considering but it has been very well supported.

"This hasn't been a great year and we know that both local and national charities have particularly been struggling with the pandemic so we were glad to do our bit to help.

"We usually do fundraising events all year round but as we were closed we're only really starting to get back into it again.

"Our customers have been very supportive of us since reopening so we appreciate everyone who came along."
