HELP me break a world record! On September 27, join me and hundreds of thousands of other people around the UK for Macmillan Cancer Relief's World's Biggest Coffee Morning.

We've all had our lives touched by cancer in some way. Macmillan's coffee morning is a fun and easy way for you and your friends, family or colleagues, to support people living with cancer in the UK.

All you have to do to take part is call 0845 602 1246 (local rate) or visit www.worldsbiggestcoffeemorning.org.uk to register. You will be sent a pack with suggestions of fun ways to arrange your coffee morning as well as money off vouchers for coffee and biscuits. On the day, simply ask your guests for a donation to Macmillan for the coffee they drink.

Last year around 30,000 coffee mornings were held everywhere from homes to workplaces and community centres all around the UK, raising an amazing £3.2 million.

This year, with your help, we can beat that total for Macmillan Cancer Relief. So this year, where will you hold yours?
