Singer and television presenter Aled Jones is asking people to Sing Out for Marie Curie Cancer Care this Christmas time.
Whether you are singing on your own, in a group or just with friends, Aled wants you to dedicate a Christmas performance to raising funds for the charity. Aled said: "By singing out this Christmas time for Marie Curie Cancer Care with your choir, church or friends, you can help raise vital funds so that Marie Curie Nurses can continue to provide free care for terminally ill people in their own homes and the charity's hospices."
Marie Curie Nurses will be working throughout Christmas and the New Year, ensuring terminally ill patients can spend Christmas at home with their families or in one of the charity's hospices. Last year, 375 Marie Curie Nurses across the country cared for patients on Christmas Eve and Christmas day. To take part all you need to do is choose a date between November and December to hold your singing event, decide on the venue and then warm up those vocal chords and get practising.
Registration is open until the 25 November 2011. To find out more about how you can organise your own event, please call 08700 340 040 or visit www.mariecurie.org.uk/singout.
