Marie Curie: How hosting a Blooming Great Tea Party this summer will help raise vital funds for terminally ill people
The charity is inviting people to throw a Blooming Great Tea Party in June and July to help raise funds for end-of-life support for terminally ill people, and their families.
Every penny raised will help Marie Curie to continue caring for people in their own homes. Donations also support its information and support services, including a telephone line that provides a listening ear to anyone dealing with any aspect of death and bereavement.

“We’d encourage supporters to make the most of the extra long bank holiday weekend in June, too – a perfect occasion to raise a cuppa and some money for a blooming great cause. Just don’t forget to price your slice!”
