Whether you are looking for a special gift for a loved one, a fun stocking filler or a festive greetings card, Marie Curie Cancer Care’s Christmas Catalogue has something for you (please see below for details).

And what’s more, every present or card you buy will help Marie Curie Cancer Care provide free nursing care to terminally ill people at the end of their lives. Marie Curie Nurses will be caring for terminally ill people in their own homes over the festive season, so patients can spend their final Christmas at home surrounded by those they love the most.

To order from the catalogue, please call 0844 800 7730 or visit www.mariecurie.org.uk/shop.
