The MARIE Curie Cancer Care charity is looking for volunteers to take part in its new fundraising initiative in March.

The charity is urging people in Gloucestershire to volunteer for the Great Daffodil Appeal in March. The funds raised will be used for paying nurses who provide care to terminally ill people in their homes.

The charity organizes the appeal, in which volunteers on the streets ask people to wear a daffodil in exchange of a donation, every year.

"Donating your time to the appeal will help Marie Curie nurse to provide more fee care to people. We've got a role for everyone, so whether you've got a couple of hours or a couple of days a week to spare, please get in touch," said Ann Brady, a Marie Curie nurse.

The charity is looking for volunteers to help out at Redditch Morrisons on March 9 and March 10 as well as on Redditch Tesco on March 15 and March 16. The appeal is Marie Curie's biggest fundraising campaign and involves volunteer on the street for a month asking people to wear a daffodil.
