Marie Curie Christmas appeal – help us raise awareness of the Marie Curie charity and raise funds at the same time! Marie Curie needs your help!

Covid-19 has put a hold on everything from weddings and holidays to restaurants and parties, we wish we could put a hold on terminal illnesses but unfortunately we can’t.

We want to raise awareness of the Marie Curie Charity as we feel there is not enough publicity for the amazing work that they do. Marie Curie urgently need your help to be able to continue their work.

The pandemic has made it extremely difficult for Marie Curie to raise money, fundraisers have been cancelled and charity shops have closed. Without your donations and support, care and support for individuals and their families living with terminal illnesses would not be possible.
