What is Daffodil Day?

Daffodil Day is all about showing your support for cancer research, awareness, and cancer societies who are doing their best with volunteers to raise funds.

The largest single fund-raising activity of the Irish Cancer Society is the annual Daffodil Day. It is responsible for 20% of all income. The first Daffodil Day in Ireland was held in 1988 and was led by President of the Irish Cancer Society, Professor Austin Daragh and the CEO, Tom Hudson.
