Light up a Life for Beaumond House

Posted onPosted on 14th Nov

Beaumond House is inviting people to shine a light on the life of someone they love this December.

Light up a Life is an uplifting and meaningful opportunity to remember family and friends while supporting the care provided by the Newark hospice.

“We were so lucky to have been cared for by the team at Beaumond House. It meant Marian could spend her final few weeks at home,” said Les Reid, of Farndon.

With Christmas just around the corner, Light Up a Life, provides the chance to gather as a community and light candles in memory of loved ones.

This year, the hospice is offering more ways that you can get involved:

Make a mark in the Book of Remembrance. You can make a personal dedication to a loved one which will be displayed in the Book of Remembrance. Dedications are open to everyone, not just those with a connection to Beaumond House.

When you donate a minimum of £5 per message you’ll be able to purchase a limited edition feather Light up a Life pin badge for an extra £1. To make a dedication, visit www.beaumondhouse.co.uk or email [email protected]

The day therapy patients at Beaumond House have been busy making feather-filled baubles to hang on a Christmas tree. They can be personalised and cost £5. To order go to www.beaumondhouse.co.uk/light-up-a-life

Baubles are personalised and made to order; you will be able to collect them at Beaumond House reception, one of its charity shops or one of the Light up a Life services.

Brighten up the Beaumond House virtual tree. For the first time, you can dedicate a light on a virtual Christmas tree. Once you’ve chosen your light, you can add a photograph of your loved one and make a donation to support Beaumond House.

The hospice would also love to see you at one of their Light up a Life services at which there will be readings, songs, and time for reflection. You’ll be given the chance to hang a memory tag on one of the Christmas trees at each church and light a candle in memory of your loved one.

The services are:

Monday 5th December 7pm St John the Baptist Church, Collingham

Tuesday 13th December 7pm The Church of St Mary Magdalene, Newark

Thursday 15th December 7pm Southwell Minster, Southwell
