Remember a loved one with a Remembrance Rose

Our special ceramic Remembrance Roses are a wonderful way to support St Helena Hospice in memory of your loved one.

You could choose to display your rose in the garden, on the mantelpiece, or perhaps at a grave or memorial space. They also make a touching gift to a friend or family member remembering a loved one, or someone who just loves roses.

“Rose Calendars are proud to support St Helena Hospice at this special event. While the connection in name makes this partnership particularly meaningful to us, our support is rooted in something far more important, in helping an organisation that provides specialist care to local people.

By supporting this event, we hope to play a small part in enabling that care to continue, while also offering a thoughtful way for people to remember loved ones. It is a privilege for Rose Calendars to be involved in an initiative that brings together remembrance, community, and meaningful support.”
