Houghton le Spring and District Round Table are pleased to have Macmillan cancer support on board as a designated charity to receive the proceeds of the first ever but hopefully annual Houghton Beer festival this May.

I'm sure that most people are probably quite familiar with Macmillan and the great work that they do to support those diagnosed with Cancer, cancer survivors and the family and friends affected by cancer.

The work that Macmillan carry out in the North East is so far ranging that it we couldn't do it justice by summarising it here, if you would like to know more please visit http://www.macmillan.org.uk/Home.aspx .
