Warwick Lights of Love

November 9, 2015 @ 8:00 am - December 24, 2015 @ 5:00 pm

Light a Light to remember loved ones

 

Once again the town Christmas Tree in Warwick Market Place will be used as a place to remember loved ones.   The Town Council and the Rotary Club of Warwick are joining forces to enable you to purchase a card which will be placed on the tree bearing the names of those remembered in your request.

The Christmas tree donated by Barns Close Nurseries has already been put up in Warwick Market Square. But it is looking rather bare as the lights have to go on and the memorial cards to those we have loved have yet to be added.

People are invited to dedicate a message remembering a loved one, and an attractive card will be added to the tree, raising funds this year for Myton Hospice and the Mayors charities.

 A list of all those whose names are on the tree will also be published on this web site and updated regularly..

The annual Lights of Love appeal will be launched by the Rotary Club of Warwick, with the Mayor switching on the lights on the tree in Market Place, Warwick as part of the Victorian evening celebrations on Thursday Nov 26th.

You are invited to get involved by paying to put a message up in memory of someone special who cannot be with them this Christmas.

Organiser Jackie Crampton said “People never forget those they have lost, but Christmas makes us aware of those that aren’t with us. Putting their names and a message on the tree gives us a chance to remember them and means they are part of the town too”.

To get your message on the tree fill in the attached form, or collect one from Warwick Post Office, Tourist Information Office, Claridges, or Torreys Hardware in West Street.   And please remember that for those who qualify, Gift Aid can be claimed to increase your donation.   The leaflet also gives details of where it should be sent or handed in.

All are very welcome to attend a short service of dedication in the Market Place at 4pm on Sunday 13th December
