THIS Morning's Alison Hammond is coming to Droitwich to enjoy a cuppa with fans.

The star television presenter is visiting the Woodland View Care Home, on Pulley Lane, for a coffee morning in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support.

The event will be free to attend, with hot drinks and cakes available to purchase at the care home, with all proceeds going to the charity which supports those affected by cancer.

Cindy Hawkins, home manager, said the team around the care home are very excited about Alison's visit.

She is a personal friend of Cindy's and was more than happy to take part in the charity event despite her busy schedule.

She said: "We are really looking forward to it, it is such a fantastic cause as well.

"Alison is a personal friend of mine so when I asked if she would like to attend she said 'absolutely'. 

"It is free to attend and you can buy your hot drinks and other refreshments here, and all the money raised will go to support Macmillan.

"There will also be a raffle held on the day as well."

Alison Hammond was first featured on Big Brother in 2002, in which she was the second housemate to be evicted.

She has since gone on to feature in shows such as Strictly Come Dancing, Celebrity Masterchef and I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! 

In August 2021, the cancer charity revealed its flagship fundraiser is facing a £20 million drop in income for the second year running.

The charity warned it could put almost 200,000 cancer patients at risk of missing vital care from the charity’s nurses.

Other celebrities such as Doctor Who and The Thick Of It star Peter Capaldi and model Twiggy are among the famous faces supporting a campaign to raise money for a leading cancer charity.
