Remember a loved one at Lights of Love this December.
Lights of Love offers a time to reflect and remember those we miss at celebrations across Hastings and Rother. You can also dedicate a star to be placed on one of our Lights of Love trees and watch them shine bright at one of the celebrations, or visit the trees at time that is suitable for you.
Lights of Love Stars and Dedications
If you choose to dedicate a star, you will be able to personalise it by adding a name, a memory, a message, or even a coloured ribbon. This will also help it to be easily located on our trees. When you are ready simply return your stars to us to be hung on one of our trees, which have been kindly donated by Littledown Christmas Tree Farm.
Stars can be ordered online here, obtained from any of our St Michael’s Hospice shops or from the St Michael’s Hospice Reception. Alternatively, you can email lightsoflove@stmichaelshospice.com or call 01424 456396.
