2. MARIE CURIE
There are two options for them –
(a) cheque direct to Marie Curie Hospice in Solihull.
Any cheques sent there should be made payable to ‘Marie Curie’ and they can restrict the donations so they can be spent specifically at the Solihull Hospice.
Their address is:
Marie Curie Hospice West Midlands, Marsh Lane, Solihull, Birmingham, B91 2PQ
Write on the reverse of the cheque ‘for Solihull Hospice only’.
Also indicate that the donation qualifies for Gift Aid, if you are a UK taxpayer and ask for a Gift Aid declaration form to be sent to you.
(b) Online via:
Their national website.
https://www.mariecurie.org.uk/donate
There your donation would also qualify for Gift Aid, again if you are a UK taxpayer BUT it would only go into national funds and not direct nor restricted to the Solihull Hospice that Brenda desires.
