EVERYONE is invited to remember their loved ones during the Lights of Love campaign which launches for 2019.

Lights of Love provides a unique and special opportunity for people to come together at services in Bromsgrove, Redditch and Rubery.

People will be given the chance to dedicate a light to a loved one on special Christmas trees in the town as well as have their names included in special remembrance books.

Emma Williams, fundraising manager at Primrose Hospice, said: “Lights of Love is a very special campaign as it gives everyone an opportunity to remember a loved one.

“People are invited to dedicate a light to on one of our Christmas trees in Bromsgrove, Redditch and Rubery.

“Their names are then placed in remembrance books around our trees for family and friends to visit throughout the festive season.

“In return, we ask for a donation to Primrose Hospice, allowing the hospice to continue its vital work support patients with life-limiting illnesses, and their families.

“Last year we were thrilled to raise over £37,000 which helped us to continue to offer our outstanding care and support free of charge to those that need it.”

People are invited to attend one of three remembrance services taking place across the county throughout November and December.
