ALMOST £14,000 was raised through collections during Marie Curie’s Great Daffodil Appeal in York this year.
The charity’s annual appeal, which ran throughout spring, has been hailed a resounding success by Marie Curie nurse, Susan Ebbage.
She has thanked the volunteers who came out in force to support the Great Daffodil Appeal collections in North Yorkshire. More than 900 volunteers helped out across the county.
Volunteers encourage people to make donations and sport the charity’s daffodil pin to help Marie Curie Nurses provide care and support to more people living with a terminal illness.
Susan said: “Now that the campaign has come to a close, I’m delighted to announce we have raised almost £14,000 from our daffodil collections as part of the appeal here in York. This figure was reached through street and supermarket collections across the city.”
