Marie Curie

Marie Curie is one of the UK's leading end-of-life charities, providing specialist palliative, hospice and nursing care for people living with terminal illnesses and offering vital support to their families. The charity's expert nurses, healthcare professionals and support teams work to ensure that individuals with life-limiting illnesses can live as well as possible in their final months and days - whether receiving care at home, in one of their hospices, or through remote support services. Marie Curie also campaigns for better end-of-life care policy, funds palliative care research, and offers a free UK-wide support line for anyone affected by dying, death and bereavement.

Operating nationally throughout the United Kingdom, Marie Curie's services include free nursing and hospice care across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The charity runs nine hospices in locations such as Belfast, Bradford, Cardiff & the Vale, Edinburgh, Glasgow, London (Hampstead), Liverpool, Newcastle and the West Midlands, while its community nursing teams support people in their own homes. Marie Curie's research and campaigning work helps shape public understanding and policy on end-of-life care across the UK.

Marie Curie Charity Shops

Marie Curie operates a nationwide network of charity shops - over 100+ stores across England, Scotland and Wales - offering donated preloved items such as clothing, accessories, books, homewares and more at affordable prices. These high-street and local community shops are staffed by volunteers and raise essential funds to support Marie Curie's nursing, hospice care and support services for people with terminal illnesses and their families. Shops also welcome donations and volunteers, and the charity runs online retail channels on platforms like eBay to expand its fundraising reach. Proceeds from shop sales help fund frontline care and sustain the charity's mission to improve end-of-life support throughout the UK
