Warwick Mayor Cllr Parminder Singh Birdi and Rotary Club President Keith Talbot accompanied by Warwick Town Clerk Mrs Jayne Topham greeted over a hundred people to a service to dedicate the Lights of Love which have been hung on the tree in the Market square, commemorating those we have loved and lost.
Due to seasonal weather, this was moved to the ballroom at the Town Council’s offices. A short carol service was led by Revd. Jonathon Hearn, Vicar of St Paul’s. Readings relating to loss of loved ones were made by Rotary President, the Mayor, Town Clerk and Revd. Hearn, interspersed by our favourite carols. Warwick Community Band provided the music and the young children from Emscote and All Saints Junior school choir sang beautifully.
The tree donated by Barn Close Nurseries, is now covered with cards donated by people remembering loved ones and will be left up until the New Year. Proceeds will be shared between Myton Hospice and the Mayor’s charities.
if you would like to put a card on the tree complete a form and return to the Tourist Office.
