Marie Curie nurses, doctors and frontline staff work night and day in our Belfast Hospice and in peoples homes right across Northern Ireland providing expert clinical care for patients and much needed respite, comfort and reassurance for families, carers and loved ones.

Having had personal experience of both the hospice and care in my own home at different times for my wife and my mum, I know the importance of and the difference Marie Curie do make.

The money that is raised helps Marie Curie Nurses provide vital care and support to people with terminal illness, and their families at the toughest time.

£23 could pay for one hour of vital nursing care for someone living with a terminal illness in the comfort of their own home.
