What is the Marie Curie Great Daffodil Appeal?
Marie Curie’s Great Daffodil Appeal is one of the charity’s biggest annual fundraising campaigns and has been helping to raise awareness and funds since 1986.

Marie Curie are the UK’s leading end of life charity. Providing frontline nursing and hospice care, a free support line and a wealth of information on all aspects of dying, death and bereavement. The charity also provide funds for vital research, which is where you come in. Raising awareness for The Great Daffodil Appeal will help to ensure that this work can continue.

Each March, millions of people across the UK show their support for the work of Marie Curie by making a donation and wearing a daffodil pin. Without this generosity, thousands of families across the UK wouldn’t be able to make the most of the precious time they have left together.

Marie Curie ask businesses and retailers to stock their daffodils in shopfronts to enable people to donate whatever they are able and to wear a Daffodil to show their support throughout the month.

Although traditionally fundraising for the appeal began this way, this isn’t the only way to help to raise vital funds for Marie Curie. Whether it’s through sponsorship for running, skipping, skooting, cycling or walking to name a few or by making a donation directly, you can get more details here.
