Marie Curie is celebrating a very special milestone next month and people across Richmond are being asked to join in.

March the 19th marks 40 years of the hospice charity’s Great Daffodil Appeal.

Volunteers will spend 2 hours on the day giving out daffodil pins in return for a donation outside the train station.

We’re also all being asked to wear yellow this March to support the charity as a whole.

To volunteer at Richmond station on the 19th of March, or to find other ways to support the Great Daffodil Appeal, visit Marie Curie’s website or contact Sophy Alexander at sophy.alexander@mariecurie.org.uk or 07591 389 046.

Sophy Alexander, Community Fundraiser for Surrey, said: “By giving just a couple of hours at Richmond station, you’ll be helping Marie Curie support more people living with a terminal illness. Marie Curie volunteers are fully supported – and the big yellow hat is included!”
