Highfields seniors have raised a coffee mug in support of cancer patients and their families.

Residents of the Carinity Brownesholme retirement village hosted a fundraising event as part of Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea.

The fundraiser helped to help raise money for the Cancer Council to support those impacted by cancer, empower people to reduce their cancer risk, and find new ways to better detect and treat cancer.

Together 50 Carinity Brownesholme residents raised $1,231 from a stall and multi-draw raffle and by selling home cooking and craft items.
