Traditionally Christmas is a time when families and friends come together. The absence of loved ones, for whatever reasons at this time, is often painful and for those coping with bereavement, it is a particularly difficult time. St. David’s Hospice ‘Tree of Light' brings comfort and pleasure to many people and the donations received from dedications, help us to provide the exceptional care required by those suffering with life limiting illness.
We therefore cordially invite you, along with friends and family, to attend our Tree of Light ‘Lighting Up’ ceremony and symbolically dedicate a light on our beautiful tree in memory of a loved one who is no longer with us, whether or not they were cared for at St David’s. Click here for more info
