Marie Curie Collab

This spring we worked with UK charity Marie Curie to design a limited edition cushion for their annual Great Daffodil Appeal. Our brief was to design a cushion that captured the essence of the charity, the daffodil and their campaign.

We are very pleased to introduce our Aurora cushion with 100% of the profits from every sale reaching the charity!

Aurora Cushion £70

If you’re familiar with us as a brand then you’ll know that we love giving back and raising awareness wherever we can so when this opportunity presented itself naturally we couldn’t wait to get stuck in! Being able to help support people at the most vulnerable stages in their lives is truly a special gift and it’s been overwhelming to see how many people already support this vital charity.

 

Now in its 33rdyear, The Great Daffodil Appeal (GDA) is Marie Curie’s flagship fundraising campaign and was introduced to raise funds for those affected by terminal illnesses including cancer, MND and dementia. Every March the UK turns yellow with millions of supporters wearing the iconic Marie Curie Daffodil pin. With your help, the charity can be there for more people, current statistics show that every five minutes, someone in the UK dies without getting the care and support they need at the end of their life. Help us to help Marie Curie by buying this cushion for your home or gift it to someone special. And if you want to support but cushions isn’t your thing don’t worry you can donate to the charity directly with this link, click here.

Some people have already got theirs… will you be next?!
