MARIE Curie Cancer Care is appealing for people in Trafford to donate an hour of their time this March, to hand out the charity’s daffodil pin in return for donations as part of the charity’s Great Daffodil Appeal.

The appeal is Marie Curie’s biggest fundraiser which encourages everyone to give a donation and wear a daffodil pin during March.

Actress Olivia Colman, who is backing the campaign, said: “I’m supporting Marie Curie’s Great Daffodil Appeal and urging anyone who has an hour or two to spare this March to sign up and collect funds for the charity.

"The money you raise by encouraging people to donate and wear the charity’s daffodil pin will help Marie Curie Nurses provide free care to people with terminal illnesses in their own homes, as well as vital support for their families, at the most difficult of times.”
