SIR – I am writing to inform your readers of a fundraising initiative taking place at Superdrug stores across the country this weekend.

Stores are raising funds to help Marie Curie Cancer Care provide more free nursing care to terminally-ill patients in their own homes and in the charity’s hospices.

During the fundraising weekend, Superdrug colleagues will be holding their own ‘Blooming Great Tea Parties’ as part of Marie Curie’s summer fundraising campaign and launching an exclusive daffodil pin badge, available for a £1 donation at tills in stores nationwide.

We would like to thank Superdrug who have signed up to partner with us for a two-year campaign, and would be grateful to all your readers for supporting their local store.

Fabian French, director of fundraising, Marie Curie Cancer Care, London
