Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

You can also donate by text - just text KAZF54 followed by either £1, £2, £3, £4, £5 or £10 to 70070. Texts are free and 100% of your donation will go to Marie Curie in memory of John. If you want to donate a higher amount, you need to donate online please.

Marie Curie in Belfast gave us the most amazing support during John's illness. We attended day therapy every Friday for 20 months, plus he passed away there, being cared for professionally and compassionately, just the way we wanted it to be.

It costs £235 for one day's attendance at a day therapy unit at a Marie Curie hospice.

It costs £515 to care for an in-patient at a Marie Curie hospice for one day.

As you can see they need money to carry on the amazing work they do.

Everybody with a terminal illness should be entitled to quality palliative care.

I'm just doing my bit to say a heartfelt 'thank you'.

Thanks in advance for all your help/support/donations.
