Light up a Life

Wednesday December 2nd – Bury Parish Church

Sunday December 6th – Bury Hospice

Light up a Life, sponsored by Fred Hamer Funeral Services, is a pivotal moment in Bury Hospice’s calendar.

At this very special time of year they come together to remember those they love and miss and the joy they brought to our lives.

Christmas is a special time of year and switching the lights on our Christmas tree is an especially poignant part of their service and marks the moment where we take time to remember our loved ones.

The lights on their tree will shine brightly throughout the festive season as a symbol of our love and remind us of the special people we miss so much.

Bury Hospice would like you to join them in remembering your loved one by attending one of their services and dedicating a light this Christmas.

Running alongside the annual service is Bury Hospice’s Light up a Life donation appeal, which will help them to continue to deliver palliative and end-of-life care and support to patients and their families.

They have teamed up with online memorial platform, MuchLoved so you can make a dedication online along with a photo of a loved one, a message or a memory.

The dedication you make will be featured on a special tribute page throughout their 2026 Light up a Life season.

Bury Hospice encourage you to spread the word of Light up a Life as they want as many people as possible from across Bury to join them.

While all of our events are here to bring people together, they raise money for us too. As a hospice we have been overwhelmed by the love we have experienced throughout the year.

By supporting their Light up a Life donation appeal, you will be showing their patients and their families how much you care and helping to make the festive period extra special.

Bury Hospice could not do what they do without the support of their community, they are grateful for every penny raised and look forward to sharing Light up a Life with you.
