Pub retailer and brewer Greene King has raised £1.2 million for Macmillan Cancer Support, beating its £1 million target. It did so eight months ahead of schedule in its three-year partnership.
Macmillan is Greene King’s first national charity partner. Its early success was recognised earlier this year when it was shortlisted in the Best Employee Engagement category at the Third Sector Business Charity Awards.

“Our employees and customers have worked tirelessly with real passion and enthusiasm to raise much needed funds for Macmillan. I think it is truly inspirational that they have managed to smash our target and raise £1.2 million with eight months of our partnership still to go!”

Greene King employees and customers will support Macmillan’s flagship fundraiser the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning for the third year running this month, aiming to build on the £218,000 they have raised during this event over the last two years.
