A time to come together to make a tangible act of remembrance for loved ones no longer with us, in the form of dedicating a star on a Lights of Love tree at one of our celebrations.

Whether your loved one received the care of St Michael’s Hospice or not, young or old, local or further afield, all can be remembered at Lights of Love.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to a Lights of Love celebration this December.

Making a Dedication

Using one of our new biodegradable stars, write your personal dedication, using a waterproof pen. You may choose to write on the name of your loved one, paint or add pictures, add decorations to make it personal to you and to them.

You can choose to take your dedication/s along with you to one of the celebrations to hang on the trees located there, hang it on your own tree at home or you can send to the Hospice for us to hang on one of our trees.

Please remember, your stars may be hung on trees that are located outside so may become damaged. To ensure we think about the environment, please avoid using sticky tape, glitter and other plastic or non-biodegradable products.

If you would like a star, please visit one of our shops, our Hospice Reception or contact our fundraising team on 01424 456396 or email us.

Visiting the Lights of Love Trees

Lights will be on the Lights of Love trees on the top lawn at the Hospice from Sunday 10th – Friday 29th December. If you wish to visit, this can be arranged between 9am – 4.30pm by contacting the main Reception on 01424 445177.

The trees will also remain at the venues. Please contact the venues in advance of visiting to avoid disappointment.

Thank you to Little Down Farm who have kindly donated trees for this event.
