Celebrate and remember the life of someone special at Christmas

During the Christmas season, we embrace love, family and togetherness. However, it can be a challenging time for those who have experienced loss. Light Up a Life is a community event that provides an opportunity for everyone to reminisce about joyful memories and find meaningful ways to celebrate the lives of those we have loved. At the same time, it assists your local hospice to support people living with life-limiting illnesses and their families.

Join us at our Light Up a Life service in 2025

We’d like to invite you to join us for our Light up a Life service, an uplifting opportunity to celebrate and remember those we love. Our 2025 service will take place at Grimsby Town Hall on Saturday 6th December between 3 and 5pm. This will include a non-religious service, carols and readings, as well as performances by the Humber Belles and Stagecoach Children’s Choir. Guests can enjoy refreshments kindly provided by Starbucks, and there will be time for reflection and lighting candles in memory of loved ones.

Everyone is welcome to attend, whether you have experienced St Andrew’s Hospice’s care or not, and no matter how long ago your loss was.
