Have a cuppa for a good cause

NEWTOWNABBEY folk are being urged to back Marie Curie Cancer Care's 2010 Blooming Great Tea Party fundraiser.

People across the borough are being encouraged to raise funds for the charity by hosting their very own tea party between June 12 and July 12.

Money raised through the Blooming Great Tea Party initiative will allow more Marie Curie Nurses to provide expert end of life care, totally free, to patients in their own homes or in the hospice.

Anyone who would like to get involved should call 08700 340 040 or visit www.mariecurie.org.uk/teaparty for a free fundraising pack.
