In memory
Donating or fundraising in memory of someone is a very special and meaningful way to honour their life and help others at the same time.
Every year donations to celebrate the lives of people who have died help us to support and care for others at St Oswald’s Hospice. There are lots of ways you can make a difference to other people’s lives and commemorate your loved one, friend or family member. Your generosity will support someone else, helping our expert to team to provide comfort, peace and happy moments, even during difficult times
Light up a Life
This winter, you can remember a loved one by dedicating a light for them on our hospice Christmas tree. We are also hosting a virtual remembrance service you can watch from home on Sunday 6th December, which we hope will offer comfort to our whole community at the end of a difficult year.
