Story
Since 2017, Appleby Westward have chosen Marie Curie to be their charity partner and have raised over £100,000 since then, funding over 5000 hours of vital nursing care for families across the South West and UK.
This March we're supporting their Great Daffodil Appeal to help thousands of people living with terminal illness during these difficult times.
We'll be sending daffodil pin badge boxes and a range of fundraising packs to stores. You can use this page to bank the money you've raised and keep us updated with your fundraising !
Tell us what you've been up to and send your pictures to applebywestward@mariecurie.org.uk to see them displayed on this page!

Appleby Westward’s 180 challenge
Take on the 180 Challenge running, swimming or cycling for 180 minutes and raising at least £180 to fund something truly amazing: a night’s care from a Marie Curie Nurse for a family in need. Make this challenge your own and complete it over as many days as it takes, as long as you reach your target by 31 March. For more information, contact Liz Lumsdon or applebywestward@mariecurie.org.uk
2 Hour Challenge
In the space of two hours, a Marie Curie Nurse can give a great deal
of care to a dying person and their loved ones. This could include
providing vital medicines or simply bringing comfort and respite at
the toughest time – at a patient’s home or in one of our nine
hospices nationwide. But, in order to keep providing these essential
frontline healthcare services, we need you to make every second
count in our 2 Hour Challenge. This is a fun event where you get sponsored to show us what you can do for two hours. You can do your challenge anytime(s) across March, and you can choose any kind of activity that takes your fancy.
