Hospice Support<br />

Hospice UK, the national<br />

charity which leads Hospice<br />

Care Week, estimates that<br />

UK hospices have lost in the<br />

region of £70m in income<br />

so far this year, with charity<br />

shops closed throughout<br />

the first lockdown and many<br />

major fundraising events<br />

having to be cancelled.<br />

You can help <strong>Wigan</strong> and<br />

Leigh Hospice face this<br />

unprecedented financial<br />

challenge by supporting<br />

the Hospice’s annual Light<br />

for a <strong>Life</strong> appeal, which<br />

provides an opportunity to<br />

celebrate and remember those you love and have loved.<br />

A light is lit on the Hospice Christmas tree for every<br />

dedication made each year and every name is featured<br />

in a Book of Dedications<br />

which is printed into a<br />

bound hard-backed book<br />

and is available to view all<br />

year round.<br />

Dedications can be made<br />

to anyone, there does not<br />

need to be a connection<br />

to the Hospice. It is a<br />

simple and moving way<br />

of remembering those<br />

you love or have loved at<br />

Christmas time.<br />

For more details, visit www.<br />

You can also support the<br />

Hospice by buying any last-minute Christmas cards you<br />

need. The Hospice has a range of eight Christmas cards<br />

and these are sold in packs of ten cards for £2.99 each<br />

online at www.wlh.org.uk.
