Dorothy House services to remember loved ones are being held in the weeks leading up to Christmas and there will be a service held at Rook Lane Chapel in Frome.
The ‘Light up a Life’ service for Dorothy House Hospice Care starts at 6.00pm on Thursday 11th December and will allow people to light a candle in memory of loved ones who have passed away. The service will feature readings and Christmas Carols.
The seasonal services of remembrance are open to all and are part of the annual Dorothy House Light up a Life appeal. The hospice invites people to sponsor a light to shine on the Christmas tree in the hospice grounds as a dedication to a loved one – you don’t have to have a connection with the hospice – and the tree will be lit until 6th January 2015.
Dorothy House community fundraiser, Yvonne Brunton, who has been involved in organising the Light up a Life services taking place throughout the area said, ‘The Light up a Life services are always very poignant and a very special time for families and friends to join together and remember a loved one. Many people gain great encouragement from attending the services and view it as the start of their Christmas.”
