Charity donors among UK best

-

people in Livingston were revealed to be among the uK’s most generous givers after Marie Curie hosted a weekend of collection­s at Morrisons stores across the country.

the charity was delighted to have raised a total of over £540,000 but passed on its thanks to Morrisons staff and customers in Livingston who raised the ninth highest single amount in the uK – a total of £2223. the collection­s, which took place across the country in March, were held to coincide with the charity’s annual great Daffodil appeal.

Fiona Bushby, local fundraiser for Marie Curie, said:“the care and support that Marie Curie nurses provide to those affected by terminal illness is made only possible because of people’s generosity and this is a great example of that. We are absolutely delighted to have raised so much money over that weekend but we couldn’t have reached such an amazing total without the support we received from people in Livingston. We want to say a big thank you to Morrisons, their staff, and of course, all their wonderful customers.”
