Mylander - November to January 2023 - Issue 93

From inside the community There are a variety of ways you can help light up a life this festive season, such as taking part in the Christmas Tree-cycle – simply register your tree online and our dedicated hospice volunteers will collect your real Christmas tree outside your front door on Saturday 7th January 2023 and take it to be recycled on your behalf. You can also pop down to the Christmas Bazaar on Friday 25th November at our Stanway Brew, Books and Boutique store to pick up some wonderful festive bargains; or join in the festive spirit and hold a festive fundraiser at work, at home, at school or with a group – check out our fundraising elf-a-bet for inspiration! We also invite you to join us in remembering and celebrating loved ones no longer with us by dedicating a lantern in their name to be displayed in either the Hospice garden in Colchester or at Beth Chatto Gardens. You can view your lantern on display at one of our remembrance services at either Beth Chatto on 11th December or at the Hospice on 15th December and reflect together at this poignant time of year on special memories shared with those no longer with us. Why not also visit our online shop where you can buy a range of items including our brand new Timeless Winter candle which with a deliciously warm and festive scent of orange, cinnamon and clove is a perfect addition for your home, or makes a perfect gift; as well as stocking up on Christmas cards and more! Wherever St Helena patients spend Christmas, your support enables our staff to provide light and hope not just during the festive season, but around the clock, 365 days a year.
