The Rennie Grove Peace Hospice Care team are once again offering people the chance to remember the lives of loved ones with its annual Light up a Life campaign.
The charity will host two Light up a Life services in the lead-up to Christmas.
The first event will be held at Duke Street Gardens in Princes Risborough at 4pm on Sunday, 24th November. It will be hosted by the Rotary Club of Princes Risborough as an outdoor Tree of Light service including readings, poems, and carols.
The second event will be held at All Saints Parish Church in High Wycombe at 2pm on Saturday, 30th November. Hosted by the Rennie Grove Peace High Wycombe Fundraising Group, the service will include carols and readings followed by the switching on of the Christmas tree lights.
Local people are invited to light a candle in memory of a loved one. Those attending the High Wycombe event will also have the opportunity to hang a silver star with a personalised message on a special tree of remembrance.
The services are free to attend and open to anybody who has been bereaved and would like to remember the people they miss in this special way.
Those who can’t attend in person are invited to dedicate a star in memory of the people they miss. Anyone who makes a donation to the charity will receive a star and card to personalise and display at home during the festive season.
Tracey Hancock, Director of Fundraising at Rennie Grove Peace, says: “We know that this time of year can be very difficult for anybody who has been bereaved. By offering people the chance to dedicate a star or attend our remembrance service we hope we are giving them a chance to remember the people they have lost, at the same time as supporting our work.
“Every penny raised through donations at the event and star dedications will be used to provide vital hospice care services for people in our community who are living with life-limiting illnesses.”
