BURY Hospice is inviting people to light up a life to support their work.

The annual event gives people an opportunity to remember a loved one, not necessarily a hospice patient.

People can sponsor a candle in their memory and in return for a donation the names of the loved ones will be entered in a book of memories.

Two special services of remembrance have been organised. On December 2 there will be a multi-denominational service in a marquee at the hospice at 6.30pm.

A service will also be held at Bury Parish Church at 7.30pm on December 3.

Donation forms are available from Bury libraries, information desks and the Hospice Shop at 89 The Rock.
