FUNDRAISERS and volunteers are appealing for more volunteers to help with Marie Curie Cancer Care’s Christmas Collection Appeal.
People are needed to help with collections at venues across York during November and December to help raise funds to provide one-to-one nursing care for terminally ill people in their own homes.
Last year, Christmas collections in North and East Yorkshire raised more than £25,000, which funded more than 1,250 hours of one-to-one home nursing care.
Local fundraisers are needed at: Sainsbury’s, Foss Islands, Friday November 14 and Saturday November 15; The Co-operative Food, Hull Road, November 22 and 23; York City Centre, Saturday, December 6; and Morrisons, Acomb, December 19 and 20.
To help, contact the charity on 01904 755260 or visit www.mariecurie.org.uk to book a collection near you.
