LETTER: Blooming Great Tea Party for Marie Curie Cancer Care

As a local Marie Curie Nurse I would like to ask everyone in the area if they might hold a Blooming Great Tea Party for Marie Curie Cancer Care.

Whether it’s a gathering of friends or workmates for a cuppa, afternoon tea or a summer garden party, holding a Blooming Great Tea Party is a great way to get together and raise money for Marie Curie Cancer Care.

The money raised will allow Marie Curie Nurses, like me, to continue to provide more free care to people with terminal illnesses in their own homes. It is so important for people to be able to spend their final days in their place of choice, and for most people this means at home surrounded by the people and things they care about most. We rely on the generous support of the community to ensure more terminally ill people can receive this care at the time when they need it most. For a fund-raising pack complete with balloons and bunting call 08700 340 040 or visit www.mariecurie.org.uk/teaparty.
