Raising cash in the kitchen for Maggie's Forth Valley
That’s the date of Maggie’s Kitchen Table Day 2018, when events will be staged across the country to raise money for people with cancer.
Maggie’s Centres staff follow the ideas about cancer care originally laid out by Maggie Keswick Jencks, who despite her illness was determined not to “lose the joy of living in the fear of dying”.

Volunteer Linda Benton said: “I am delighted to take part in Maggie’s Kitchen Table Day which will raise vital funds for the incredibly important work that Maggie’s Forth Valley does supporting people living with cancer locally.
“Maggie’s Kitchen Table Day is an opportunity to get together with the people you care about to celebrate, talk and have fun while also making a difference.”
Marie Manzie, Centre Head at Maggie’s Forth Valley, said: “I can’t wait to see the wonderful events that people in Forth Valley come up with to help make Maggie’s Kitchen Table Day 2018 a success.
