IF YOU ever needed an excuse to eat cake - today is the day!

Millions of people across the country will take part in Macmillan's coffee morning today - aiming to raise money for people facing cancer.

All over the UK, people host their own Coffee Mornings today and donations on the day are made to Macmillan.

Businesses and organisations up and down the county will be holding events today and we’d love to see your pictures.

The best ones could get featured in the next Gazette.

You can send any pictures, along with details of your coffee morning, to newsdesk@basingstokegazette.co.uk or by using the contributions tool below.
