Given the choice, most of us would want to die at home, surrounded by the people and things we cherish. Marie Curie Cancer Care makes this possible.

Our nurses provide free hands-on care for people with all terminal illnesses in their own homes, and vital emotional support for their loved ones. Whether someone has cancer, heart failure, dementia or another disease, we do whatever it takes to make things easier. This could mean relieving their pain, helping them in and out of bed, or just answering those troubling questions.

We give comfort – and take away the fear. We allow families to make the most of the precious time they have left together. And we’re there day or night, until the very end.

But the sad fact is, every five minutes someone in the UK dies without the care they need at the end of their life. That’s why we urgently need to reach more people – and why we’re counting on your support. By taking on an INVNCBL Event for Marie Curie, you’ll help us make people’s final days as good as they can possibly be.

Thank you.
