Run your own event

This year, what better way to support the charity than organising your own fundraising event in aid of Marie Curie Cancer Care? Simply get together with friends, family or work colleagues and have lots of fun doing the things you enjoy, knowing that every penny you raise will help a family affected by cancer.

This year, Marie Curie Cancer Care is celebrating it’s 60th anniversary - for the past 60 years Marie Curie Nurses have cared for 375,000 patients and their families.

Sir Ranulph Fiennes attempted to climb Everest to help us celebrate. If this inspires you, use our 60th anniversary fundraising ideas (pdf, new window) to choose your own personal challenge or to organise a diamond themed fundraising event.

  • Make the most of your favourite hobbies and pastimes - go for something simple or set yourself a personal challenge.
  • You can fundraise at home, at work, at school, at university, or with your local group or club.
  • From coffee mornings and pub quizzes to golf days and glitzy balls - there are so many ways you can raise funds to help us reach more families that need our care.
