Cancer charity launches national jewellery recycling scheme

Have you ever wanted to try fishing, but don’t know where to start? Help is at hand from Pembrokeshire Fish Week!

The festival, held from 21st to 29th June, has learn-to-fish days at many fisheries around the county.  Free sessions will be held at Ian Heaps Premier Fisheries at Holgan Farm, Llawhaden; Treffgarne Angling Centre; Llys-y-Fran Country Park near Clarbeston Road, White House Mill Trout Fishery in Lampeter Velfrey, and Llyn Carfan Coarse Fishery at Tavernspite.

The scheme has been launched as part of the charity’s 60th anniversary year fundraising programme. Marie Curie Cancer Care was founded in 1948 on the donation of a diamond engagement ring. It raised £75 at auction, equivalent today to around £5,762.

Since then, Marie Curie Cancer Care has become one of the UK’s largest charities. Employing more than 2,700 nurses, doctors and other healthcare professionals, it expects to care for around 27,000 terminally ill patients in the community and in its 10 hospices this year. The charity is the largest provider of hospice beds outside the NHS and is also a leading authority and driving force in end of life care. Marie Curie Cancer Care raises over £115 million a year.

Dawn Dyne, Marie Curie Cancer Care Nurse of the Year, said: “Marie Curie Nurses provide free, end of life care allowing people to die at home surrounded by family and friends. Your donation will provide more Marie Curie Nurses, so that more people can have the choice to die at home.”
