FAMILIES have a chance to remember their loved ones during a hospice’s Light up a Life campaign.

In return for a donation to Martin House Hospice Care for Children and Young People, parents and relatives can make a dedication to their loved ones and will receive a personalised Light up a Life keepsake card.

The loved one will also appear in Martin House’s Books of Dedication, which go on display at St Mary’s Church, Boston Spa, Beverley Minster, St Mary’s Church, Whitby, and Holy Trinity Church, Skipton, from Wednesday, December 6 to Saturday, January 6.

Jodie Shepherd, director of fundraising, said: “As the year draws to a close it’s a natural time for us to remember loved ones who are no longer with us.

“With a Light up a Life dedication, you can celebrate a life while making a difference to Martin House children and young people, and their families.”

Online dedications are also included on Martin House’s virtual memory tree on its website, as well as in the Books of Dedication.

Make a dedication at www.martinhouse.org.uk or a hospice shop.
