Marie Curie Cancer Care are setting up a new volunteer fundraising group in the Bishop Auckland and Shildon area and are on the hunt for volunteers.
The first pre-group meeting will be held at Sainsbury’s Café in Bishop Auckland on Wednesday 25th September, from 6.30pm.
A spokesperson for the charity commented, “Fundraising groups make an enormous difference locally by helping to raise the vital funds we need so that Marie Curie Nurses can continue to provide free care to people with terminal illnesses in their own homes.
“By being part of Marie Curie’s new fundraising group, you will help by organising fundraising activities and collections in the local community, encouraging new volunteers to help the charity, as well as supporting Marie Curie’s major fundraising campaigns such as the Great Daffodil Appeal and Blooming Great Tea Party.”
