Coffee and cake anyone? Join locals at Warminster's retirement community for a Macmillan Coffee Morning

Taking place on Friday, September 27 between 10.30am and 12.30pm at the McCarthy Stone Retirement Living development, Crescent Place on Portway, the event will be one of many Macmillan Coffee Mornings happening up and down the country, heling to raise vital funds to support the 3 million people living with cancer in the UK.

On the day, guests and homeowners will gather in the communal lounge at Crescent Place for a brew and a slice of cake, whilst enjoying the company of friends and family, alongside the McCarthy Stone team.

The first Macmillan Coffee Morning was held in 1990 and was created to bring people together for a coffee and a catch-up, all for a good cause. It has since evolved into one of the world’s biggest fundraising events and has helped to raise millions for people living with cancer. In 2023, more than £13 million was raised through coffee mornings across the country.

To reserve your space at the fundraising event, please call 0800 153 3076.

Verity McKay, Divisional Marketing Manager for McCarthy Stone, comments: “We are delighted to be inviting locals to Crescent Place to help raise money for a very worthwhile cause. It’s not only a fantastic opportunity to help promote the brilliant work that Macmillan do, but to also bring the community together and show people what life at a McCarthy Stone development is like.”

With 80% of properties now sold, Crescent Place offers a mix of luxury one and two-bedroom retirement apartments designed exclusively for the over 60s. A sophisticated communal lounge sits at the heart of the development, alongside a beautiful landscape garden, providing plenty of opportunities for socialising and relaxation.

For peace of mind, a House Manager is on-site during office hours to oversee the development, while all properties are fitted with a 24-hour emergency call system, intruder alarm, and door camera entry.

A range of purchase options are available at Crescent Place, such as the Shared Ownership scheme in partnership with Homes England, which allows retirees to enjoy the benefits of Retirement Living without committing to the full purchase price. For example, retirees can pay just 50% of the property value of an apartment at the development, and monthly rent payable on the remaining 50%, with one-bedroom properties available from £112,500*.
