Remember a loved one this winter
Shine a light on the memory of your loved one
We invite you to join us for our annual moment of reflection and remembrance: Light Up a Life. This special time of year is a chance for us all to remember our loved ones in a meaningful way, by giving in their memory.
Your dedication will help fund vital end-of-life care, so that our nurses can be a light in someone’s life when they need it most.
When you donate in memory of your loved one, you can dedicate a star on our virtual night sky among the stars. Each star will shine bright as a tribute to someone special.
This year you can also choose to have a special memory lantern. You can light yours at home or join us at our annual Light Up a Life event.
Donate in memory today
Your donation will not only shine a light on the memory of your loved one, but will also light up the lives of those we will be caring for this winter. A donation of any size can truly make a difference to a family facing the toughest of times.
You're invited!

Jenny and David’s story
David has been supporting Light Up A Life for 11 years in memory of his wife, Jenny. He first heard about it while volunteering in one of our shops.
“I learnt quickly that there would be no getting over losing Jenny or the disbelief of her not being here. Jenny was a light in my life. Supporting Light Up A Life in her memory was making her alive again, bringing her into the light where she belongs, among the many others whose light still shines for them.
“Light Up A Life is a living memorial to a person you loved. Everyone at the Hospice does a wonderfui job, I will always be a supporter there’s no doubt about it. Jenny would do the same.”
