Information

Dedicate a Ruby Rose in memory of your loved one and come together to  celebrate their life.

As part of our 40th anniversary celebrations we invite you to join us for a special service and the dedication of a Ruby Rose in memory of your loved one. 

The service will be held between 1pm and 3pm on Saturday 14th June, where you'll be able to view the dedicated Ruby Roses on display in the hospice garden. Spirituality lead, Tim Leeson, will share a brief talk to offer guidance and comfort, reminding us of the power of love and remembrance. For a small additional cost you'll also be able to enjoy a barbecue and seed-bomb making activity. 

Purchase a rose to be placed in the display for £15 - this amount could provide an hour of compassionate care from a clinical support worker - a truly priceless gift to someone in their final days. 

You can also add a leaf and a short dedication message to your Ruby Rose for an additional £12. This total cost of £27 could provide a patient in crisis with the urgent support they need from a SinglePoint rapid response nurse for an hour. 

After the event you can choose to collect your rose from our offices or have it sent out to you for a small cost. 

By dedicating a Ruby Rose you'll help to ensure other local families have the opportunity to create priceless and lasting moments together over the next 40 years.
