£800 sizzler for cancer charity from Mid Ulster Housing Executive fry-up

Magherafelt staff decided to buy sausages, bacon, eggs and all the other goodies needed for a tasty fry – with Mary’s Bar in the town generously offered to cook the food free of charge. They raised a bumper £350 for the cancer charity.

Meanwhile, staff in the Cookstown and Dungannon offices held their own breakfast fry-ups and raise another £450.

Sharon Crooks, the Housing Executive’s area manager for Mid Ulster said: “This was an excellent way to raise funds for a very worthy cause. So many local people are affected by cancer and we are delighted to help a little by make this donation to Macmillan.

“We had a great turn out on the day and everyone left well fed. I’d like to thank Mary’s Bar for cooking our delicious fundraising breakfast in Magherfelt. Well done everyone.”
