Event Details
Join us for the Memory Light Trail
Weaving through the tranquil gardens of LOROS Hospice, our Memory Light Trail offers a special place for you and your family to remember your loved ones.
Thousands of twinkling, sparkling, starry lights will illuminate your path. Every single light reflects the life of a loved one no longer with us, every flickering flame, a story remembered.
In order to allow everyone the opportunity to visit the hospice, following the cancellation of our Light Up a Life service, and take some precious moments to remember your loved ones, we are extending the LOROS Memory Light Trail by four days, from Monday 9th December through to Sunday 15th December 2024, from 4pm-7pm.
The books of remembrance will be available to visit in the chapel during that time, and you’ll be able to light a candle in memory of your loved one as well. The Christmas tree lights will be lit. However, please don’t worry if you can’t visit next week, as the books of remembrance will remain in the chapel throughout December.
LOROS is a special place and we want to share it with everyone. Whether you have a previous connection to LOROS or not, the Memory Light Trail promises an enchanting experience which is open to all.
We hope to bring fond memories to all that visit; with a reminder that those who have departed are never truly gone – they live on in the hearts of those who remember them.
Booking is advised but not necessary - entry to the trail is available with a simple donation to LOROS Hospice.
Emma’s story – LOROS brought light into the darkness
“In March 2017 my husband Chris was diagnosed with cancer. He was 42. Our children, Annie and Hugo, were 10 and 9 at the time."
"After rounds of chemo and a hospital stay, we came to LOROS. He had a room of his own and a view of the garden. The staff were amazing, the nurses threw a party for my son’s birthday, decorating Chris’s room with banners making him a special birthday cake."
"LOROS completely changed what could have been a terrible ending, and we now have such fond memories and we’re able to see the good times that we spent together."
"On Chris’s stone we’ve had engraved ‘his light shines on’ and that’s what LOROS did for us, bring light to the darkness.”
Please consider giving the gift of care today and make a donation to LOROS Hospice. Every £1 raised will help families just like Emma’s.
