Change in venue for Weldmar Hospicecare’s Light up a Life service in Weymouth

Due to the recent bad weather, Weldmar Hospicecare’s Light up a Life tree at Lodmoor Country Park has sadly sustained significant damage. With very strong winds also forecast over the weekend due to Storm Darragh, it is not safe to continue with the outdoor service as planned. We acknowledge an important part of Light up a Life is coming together to remember loved ones, and therefore an indoor service will be held at Willowbed Hall in Chickerell this Sunday, at the revised time of 5.30pm.

Weldmar is asking that anyone wishing to attend the service considers car sharing where possible, as parking on site is limited.

The charity would like to hugely thank Chickerell Town Council for supporting this alternative plan an looks forward to welcoming visitors to the revised Weymouth service this Sunday.

If you are unable to attend on Sunday, there is an online Light up a Life service, which will be posted on Weldmar’s Facebook page at 7:30pm next Wednesday, 11th December, and streamed on Youtube at the same time.

Weldmar Hospicecare thanks everyone for their understanding.
