Could you place Marie Curie collections tins and boxes in your local neighbourhood? Collection Box Coordinators help to raise money and awareness for Marie Curie by placing and emptying collection boxes during our Great Daffodil Appeal and collection tins for the rest of the year.

Using your local knowledge and confidence in talking to potential new shops, pubs, and businesses you will build and manage your own group of collection sites, through placing new tins and boxes, regularly emptying existing ones, banking any money raised and thanking your supporting sites.
