🌼 A HUGE thank you to all our amazing collectors and volunteers who have supported the Great Daffodil Appeal so far! 🌼

Have a look through the photos below and see if you can spot yourself in the sea of yellow 💛

We also wanted to share a few lovely moments from recent GDA events:
✨ Rock Choir Northern Ireland Ballyhackamore and Holywood choirs filled Lesley Forestside with music during their collection and raised over £1,000! A massive thank you to these choirs who donated their time and talent.

✨ Field of Hope Ballyclare supported Marie Curie during one of their fundraising weekends and raised £1501 🤩 the sunshine made the field of daffodils look even more beautiful.

There’s still time to get involved! We have a few more collections coming up over the next few weeks - we particularly need volunteers for our Belfast City Centre collection on 11th April. If you’d like to join in, sign up here: https://www.mariecurie.org.uk/get-involved/fundraise/collect

Thank you again to everyone who has supported the Great Daffodil Appeal so far💛

👇 Share your collector photos in the comments, we’d love to see them!

🌼This week, we had the pleasure of a performance from Comedian Emer Maguire at the Marie Curie Hospice in Belfast. 🌼

Emer performed a signature song written specially for Marie Curie to celebrate the Great Daffodil Appeal which helps to fund the incredible work of our nurses and healthcare assistants. 💛

You can find out more about Emer's visit and clips of the original song on U105 socials and in the article below Belfast Telegraph 👇

🌼Wear your daffodil this March and support Marie Curie's Great Daffodil Appeal🌼

🌼 The daffodils are blooming… and so is the Great Daffodil Appeal! 🌼

As daffodils appear across Northern Ireland, they’re a beautiful reminder that it’s officially Great Daffodil Appeal.

💛 This Friday and Saturday mark our biggest collecting weekend of the month across all Tesco stores in Northern Ireland.

If you spot our amazing volunteer collectors, please stop for a chat or make a donation, every coin and every conversation helps us continue providing vital care.⭐

Today, we were delighted to be out and about with David Johnston and the team, encouraging the public to get involved and support the Appeal.

The crew started the roadshow at SPAR NI Ravenhill where our corporate partners including SONI were donned in their yellow hats and tabards. Then U105 visited the Belfast hospice meeting the incredible teams who make a difference every single day for patients and their families. The final stop was at another one of our collections in Tesco Yorkgate with Wave Trauma Group.

Thank you to everyone who wears a daffodil, donates, or volunteers — you’re helping Marie Curie be there when it matters most. 💛🌼

This week, we’re shining a spotlight on the Fatigue, Anxiety and Breathlessness (FAB) programme led by Liz, one of our Occupational Therapists at the Marie Curie Hospice in Belfast.

The FAB programme offers people living with progressive, life‑limiting illnesses, the opportunity to learn techniques that can help them manage their symptoms and support them in enjoying a better quality of life. 💛

The 5 week programme is more than just practical support, it’s a space for people experiencing similar symptoms to come together and enjoy the social and peer support throughout the programme.

🎉 Recently, one of the group members, Ann, celebrated her 90th birthday and the group marked the occasion together.

Ann shared: “The FAB programme was very beneficial and informative. It was especially helpful to meet with other people who are experiencing similar difficulties to me.”

We’d like to wish Ann a very happy 90th birthday! 🎂💐

If you’d like to learn more about the FAB programme and how it supports people across Northern Ireland, visit our website:

💛The Great Daffodil Appeal 2026 is fast approaching and many of our supporters have already signed up to don their daffodil hat and tabard to collect for Marie Curie 💛

One of our longstanding hospice volunteers, Peter, recently shared his story on why he is encouraging people to support the Great Daffodil Appeal this year. 🤩

Peter said: “The Great Daffodil Appeal is somewhat iconic and, particularly with this being the 40th anniversary year, I thought there was no better time to get involved.

"Giving a couple of hours to fundraise at a local supermarket or in your local town is an easy way to support such an important cause, and it doesn’t cost a penny.” 💛

As 2025 comes to an end we are also saying a fond farewell to our long‑serving receptionist, Rosalind Colledge 💛

Ros is the first person many people see when coming into the Belfast Hospice, and she has been welcoming visitors for 19 years 🙌.

She has an incredible skill for remembering people and has played a very important part in the Marie Curie team throughout all these years 🌼

Reflecting on her time here, Ros said: ‘It has been an honour to work here and meet so many wonderful people coming to visit friends and relatives at a very difficult time 💛. I will really miss working at the Hospice, but I am grateful for all the friends that I’ve made here, as well as all the people I have met and helped over the years.’

Thank you, Ros, for your dedicated years of service to Marie Curie 🙏🌼. We wish you every happiness in your next chapter✨.

Wishing everyone a peaceful Christmas. 💛✨

We know that today can be a really difficult day for many people. If you need someone to talk to, our Support Line is open from 10am to 2pm on 0800 090 2309.

Today, nurses like Adina, who is working over the Christmas period, continue to provide care, comfort and support for patients across Northern Ireland. Adina said “It is an honour to look after people in their final days and make a difference for people at a very difficult time." 💛

Last night we held a Christmas Reflections event at the Hospice.✨ It was a truly special evening, filled with music, memories and togetherness. 🎶💛

We had the pleasure of welcoming James Nesbitt to the Marie Curie Hospice in Belfast last week to meet with some of our patients and staff and help finish off decorating our hospice Christmas tree ⭐

James met with patients Muriel and Rosemary who are currently receiving care at the hospice. Muriel even got James involved in doing some knitting and the pair had a great chat about sports, television and all sorts 💛

Hear more from James in the video below 👇

It was brilliant to see our volunteer Gary in Belfast Live this week, sharing his experience as a Marie Curie Companion volunteer to 97 year old Ethna. 🤩

Gary visits Ethna once a week to have a chat over tea and cake and said 'It's a great privilege to be able to provide her with some company for her well-being and I get a lot out of it too.' 💛

This is what our Companion service is all about: bringing comfort, conversation, and connection to people 🥰
