Our charity
Ernest Jones is proud to support Marie Curie Cancer Care. The charity provides high quality nursing, totally free, to give people with terminal cancer and other illnesses the choice to spend their final days in the comfort of their own homes, supported by their families
Research commissioned by Marie Curie Cancer Care shows that 64 per cent of people would choose to die at home, in reality only 25 per cent achieve this. Every year Marie Curie Nurses make this wish possible for thousands of patients. Working in communities across the UK – from remote Scottish islands through villages and towns to our biggest cities – Marie Curie Nurses now care for around half of all cancer patients who die at home. They work through the night or during the day to provide care for patients in the comfortable and familiar surroundings of their own home. Marie Curie nurses are also there for families and carers, providing practical and emotional support at what can be an exhausting time. Marie Curie Nursing is always free of charge to both patients and carers.
In addition, Marie Curie Cancer Care has nine hospices across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and two centres for palliative care research. It also funds seven fundamental scientific research groups which investigate the causes and treatments of cancer. Until this year this research was carried out at the Marie Curie Research Institute but from Summer 2009 the groups will be located in universities around the country and will receive funding from the charity until 2012. This year the charity will care for over 29,000 terminally ill patients in the community and in their hospices.
Providing a Marie Curie Nurse in a patient's home for one hour costs £20, and by working in partnership with organisations such as Ernest Jones, Marie Curie Cancer Care aims to double the number of people it can support.
