The Appeal Office at Dr. Kershaw’s Hospice has pleasure in announcing their annual Light Up A Life campaign for Christmas 2009.

The purpose of the scheme is twofold; firstly, it is a way in which you can remember a loved one or friend, this does not have to be someone who has sadly passed away, anyone you wish can be nominated. Secondly, to raise the vital funds that allow the important work and development of specialised services for the Hospice to continue.

So how does it work? A large tree at the Hospice will be decorated with lights, which can be individually dedicated and a card to commemorate the light will be sent to whoever you specify. The lights will be switched on following a Carol Service on Sunday 6th December at 7.30pm and will remain lit throughout Epiphany between the hours of 3pm and 11.30pm.

Your continued support is very much appreciated by all the staff and patients. Should you wish to take part in what we feel is an apt way of remembering your loved ones and friends at Christmas please click here to download a form and return it to the Hospice.
