Nantwich Tree of Light

Christmas is a time for families and friends, for celebrating and for giving; it also offers a chance to remember the loss of loved ones and to think about those less fortunate than ourselves.

People are invited to make a donation of £5 to dedicate a bauble on Nantwich’ s Tree of Light to a loved one or a special cause. Donations can be made at Nantwich Civic Hall where you will be given the opportunity to fill a bauble with a name, message or items of your choice. Those who have previously purchased a bauble, can return it to the Civic to be re-hung for a donation of £3.

In addition, names can be also be listed on Nantwich Town Council webpage of remembrance.

The full cost of the tree is covered by Nantwich Town Council and all donations will be divided between the Mayor’s charities, and St Mary’s Church.

People are invited to gather outside St Mary’s Parish Rooms on Sunday 3rd November, 5.30pm, where the Tree of Light will be illuminated with a short service of prayer, hymns and poetry, giving you the chance to reflect on memories of someone special.

This year the Tree of Light is dedicated to Jonty Evans, whose sad passing at the age of just 16, touched the whole community.
