I AM writing on behalf of all the Marie Curie Nurses in the area to appeal for your readers' help to make a difference to families coping with cancer.
We really need people across the North East who can take part in street collections or help deliver and collect daffodil boxes to local businesses as part of our Great Daffodil Appeal during March 2009.
The Great Daffodil Appeal is Marie Curie Cance
r Care's biggest annual fund-raising event and takes place throughout March. We aim to get everyone across the UK to give donations for daffodil badges and wear them to show their support. This year, the appeal is set to be bigger than ever and we need more volunteers than ever before.
The funds raised help Marie Curie Nurses to care for more people with terminal cancer and other illnesses in their own homes and at our hospice based in Newcastle.
Would you be able to help at one of our many street collections throughout March or do you have time free to become a daffodil box coordinator, delivering boxes to local businesses at the end of February and collecting them again in April?
We would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone who can help us as soon as possible. If you are interested in helping please phone Marie Curie Cancer Care Community Fund-raisers Caroline Stokle or Jane Dennison on 0191 219 1242 or 0191 219 1234.
Alternatively email caroline.stokle@mariecurie.org.uk or jane.dennison@mariecurie.org.uk
