Get cooking for Marie Curie nurses
MARIE Curie is calling on food fans in Macclesfield to hold a dinner party with a difference to raise money.
The charity is asking people to host a Dinner Down Memory Lane this October.
The money raised from every dinner party will help Marie Curie nurses care for people living with a terminal illness in their homes.
Jessica Herrington, community fundraiser in Macclesfield for Marie Curie, said: “The evenings can be as simple, creative or fancy as you like. So, whether you love to experiment with the classics or prefer rustling up a much-loved family favourite, it’s all about sharing good times together and supporting a great cause.
“Instead of asking guests to bring a bottle, ask them for a donation to Marie Curie.
“We’re really looking forward to seeing what the local community cooks up – whether it be a classic recipe from the past or a brand new culinary creation.
“We already have supporters planning a 50s themed dinner party, a Masterchef style competition, a school reunion and a family dinner party in memory of a much loved family member.
“If you haven’t done any fundraising before, this is the perfect opportunity to get involved and make a difference.”
