Around 250 enjoyed the free event in the St John Ambulance Hall in Blackmore Drive, writes Claudia Hall.

Sidmouth Living with Cancer’s Bill Lankester said: “It was really brilliant, we couldn’t have wished for anything better- it was the best coffee morning ever.

We didn’t intend to raise any money and ended up with �309.”

Jean Baker was thanked for providing cakes which contributed to the day’s success.
