Paisley and Renfrewshire North MP Gavin Newlands has joined forces with Cold Feet actress Fay Ripley to help a cancer charity provide care to more people living with a terminal illness.

The SNP man and long-term Marie Curie supporter Fay were pictured with Marie Curie nurses Victoria Shodeko and Victoria Oluwalogbon at a parliamentary event to celebrate the launch of the Great Daffodil Appeal.

Marie Curie’s daffodil pins are now available from volunteers and shops on high streets across Renfrewshire.

And, with demand for Marie Curie services growing as more people die each year, the charity hopes that more people than ever before will give a donation and wear the iconic yellow flower.

Mr Newlands said: “This annual campaign is a simple way in which you can show your support to those with a terminal illness and, in the process, help to raise some funds for this fantastic cause.

“The Great Daffodil Appeal will be running throughout March and I would encourage everyone to support this fantastic cause.”
