We warmly invite you to join us at one of our Light Up a Life services
Christmas can be a particularly difficult time when someone you love has died. Light Up a Life gives you an opportunity to pause, reflect and remember someone special, while coming together with others in your local community.
Our Light Up a Life services are special candlelight remembrance events taking place across mid Essex this November and December. Everyone is warmly invited to join us to remember loved ones and help keep the light of hospice care shining for local families.

Your support helps local families
When Stewart was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer, Farleigh Hospice became a source of comfort, care and strength for him and his family.
His wife, Soraya, describes that care as ‘a light for us at the worst time of our lives’. Discover how we helped them create precious moments together in his final days.
