A beautiful event is being held to remember loved ones who are no longer with us this Christmas.

Weldmar Hospicecare Trust is hosting their annual Light Up a Life event at Lodmoor Country Park on Sunday, December 8, at 5pm.

During the service, visitors will have the opportunity to decorate a light in memory of a loved one and place it on one of their Light Up a Life trees.

There will also be the opportunity to join in with some traditional hymns, listen to a poetry reading, a solo performance and take part in a time for reflection.

Weldmar Hospicecare is a Dorset charity providing specialist end of life care for adults with a life limiting illness, and support for their loved ones.

By dedicating a light, people are also supporting Weldmar with their donation.
