Let us all remember together
This year, many of us have endured the heartbreak of separation, or the loss of a loved one, without the opportunity to share our feelings properly. We are inviting you, your family and friends to join our Light up a Life online event (Sunday 6th December at 4.30pm), where our whole community can come together to celebrate and remember loved ones. We are pleased to welcome both Hospice supporters and the wider community.
The lights on our virtual Christmas tree carry dedications to special people and we are inviting you to make your dedication and remember loved ones.
This unique and moving event will feature readings, songs, the lighting of the Hospice Christmas tree lights and the opportunity to remember all the special people in our lives.

Get your locally grown Christmas Tree at the Hospice!
Choosing a Christmas tree is an important family tradition so we are planning to make it even more special this year whilst having sustainability at our core.
We have a new local Christmas tree supplier (GI Rogers & Son) who are based in Ashridge who will be selling both Nordman fir and Norway spruce trees in a range of sizes and from prices starting at £20. Trees will be cut little and often to ensure freshness and peak condition! Trees will be on sale from 28th November – 20th December and for every tree sold, whatever the size, the Hospice will receive £7.
