Billie Box, the shipping container company based in Rendlesham, have raised money for charity for seven years and are hoping to continue with an afternoon tea held on behalf of Myeloma UK.

Myeloma is a blood cancer that stems from plasma cells with approximately 17,500 people living with the disease in the UK.

By hosting an afternoon tea event at the Longshed in Woodbridge on Saturday, September 7, Billie Box are hoping to raise awareness and funds for research into the incurable cancer.

Myeloma UK is the only organisation in Britain fighting the war solely against myeloma and their ultimate goal is to find a cure.

With cakes being supplied by Toris Tasty Treats and Woodbridge Emporium kindly donating the tea, the occasion is sure to be a pleasant afternoon in aid of a good cause.

Tickets cost £10 and can be bought via email or by calling 01473 557409.
