The Friends of Heybridge Cemetery in Goldhanger Road will hold a Macmillan Coffee Morning at the Cemetery Chapel this Saturday, from 10am.

Guests can enjoy coffee, tea, hot chocolate and homemade cake - as well as a chance to visit the beautiful chapel. It is the ideal occasion for anyone interested in local history, or who simply wants to support a good cause.

The chapel boasts stained glass windows and beautifully simple pews, seating around 35 people. The nature and wildlife in and around the cemetery, which runs down to the banks of the canal, is eye-catching and abundant in every season, making it a beautiful place to visit lost loved ones.
