Marie Curie is here for anyone with an illness they’re likely to die from, and those close to them. Whatever the illness, wherever you are, we’re with you to the end. We bring 75 years of experience and leading research to the care we give you at home, in our hospices and over the phone.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.

In the summer holidays, once exams are finished I intend to travel to Sailsbury in Somerset to Sky Dive for charity.

The Marie Curie nurses really mean a lot to our family as they supported us to look after my nan in her own home when she was in the last few weeks of her terminal lung cancer. She did not want to go somewhere unfamiliar, she wanted to feel safe and comfortable with all her belongings around her, in the home she had known and loved for her past 71 years. Without the support of the nurses who came in every night and sat and watched over my nan, the family would have not been able to look after her, with the support she needed in the last weeks of her life. With this care, my nan died peacefully, surrounded by her loving family in her own home. Something, that everyone would want in the last moments of their lives.

It costs £164 to have a nurse look after your loved one overnight in order for you to get some well needed sleep. I would like to be able to pay for ten nights worth of overnight care for a family. £1640.00

I would like to try to raise as much as possible in order to help other people receive this care, that is free to the families.

Please help me to support the Marie Curie nurses.

Thank you

Jack
