Albany Lotteries House played host to a delicious morning tea on Friday morning as community members joined the local volunteer service to raise vital money for cancer research. More than 140 people turned out for the Biggest Morning Tea at Albany Lotteries House on North Road to fundraise $1600 for cancer research for the Cancer Council. Albany and Regional Volunteer Service manager Sarah Udecz said the turnout was “amazing” with attendees enjoying sunshine despite a rainy forecast. “The whole aim is to raise awareness about cancer and raise funds for our local cancer hub,” she said. “We had quite a few RSVPs but we had had people just come off the street so we ended up with a massive turnout. “It’s all for a good cause.”
