Among those taking part was the Bath House pub on Exmouth seafront which, along with the traditional coffee morning, held a ‘sponsored dawdle’ along the seafront.
Around 60 people took part in the dawdle, and £420 was raised overall.
Also fundraising for Macmillan were staff at Travelworld and Exmouth Information Centre, who held a coffee morning featuring a range of homemade cakes.
Travelworld’s Emma Burford said: “It was really successful.
“We raised about £300 for Macmillan, and any unsold cakes we gave to the Geoff Ingram day.
“We do something for charity every year, but we’ve had a come down from skydiving to holding a coffee morning, which is less scary!”
