You know spring is here when the daffodils are out and there’ll be giant ones in the form of “Daffodil People” going round the streets of Britain today as they fundraise money for “The Daffodil Campaign” which is Marie Curie Cancer Care’s biggest annual event.
The event runs throughout March and it’s easy to get involved:
Last year’s campaign brought in more than £2 million to help fund the Marie Curie Nurses who make it possible for terminally ill people to make the choice to be cared for in their own homes — entirely free of charge.
Our next campaign, which runs throughout March, aims to raise an additional £500,000 – enough to provide an extra 30,000 hours of Marie Curie Nursing.
Donations can also be made online and if you’re a U.K. tax payer, you can reclaim and add an additional 28% to your contribution at no cost to you through the government’s “Gift Aid” scheme. Matters not if you can donate £1 or £100 however, as every little helps. :D
