It may have been a cold, overcast day yesterday, but noone could stop a dedicated community coming out to mark Daffodil Day and fundraising for cancer research.

Beautiful stalls added plenty of colour in Napier St, outside My Shop for the annual appeal.
My Shop owner Denise Phillips partners with Deniliquin Cancer Council fundraising coordinator Irene Davies to put on a delicious morning tea spread.
“I know we say it every year, but Irene and I could not make this a success without the help of our community, friends and family,” Mrs Phillips said.
The tradition has been raising funds since 1998, and all funds raised go towards the Cancer Council’s vital research into detection and treatments for greater outcomes in the future.

The Cancer Council relies on community donations to continue their work into every aspect of cancer research.
While the celebration could expand without the imposition of COVID-19 restrictions, fresh daffodils were still unable to get Deniliquin in time.
But guests enjoyed assorted cakes, slices, biscuits, hot tea and coffee, and purchased Cancer Council merchandise to show their support.
