With more than £27.5m raised in 2019, the annual fundraising campaign has been dubbed the ‘World’s Biggest Coffee Morning’.

Launched in 1990, Coffee Morning began with the simple idea that punters would get a cup of tea and a cake and donate their money to charity. Since then, the event has raised £275 million.
