    The remembrance service will take place at St Michael's hospice

    Saint Michael’s Hospice is set to hold its annual remembrance service in Harrogate tomorrow.

    The hospice, which is based at Hornbeam Park, will hold the event on Saturday (December 11) at Crimple House.

    Held every year, the service will feature music, comforting readings and quiet time for reflection alongside the heart-warming moment where the community’s dedicated lights are illuminated together.

    Portia Crewe, Knaresborough, has attended the hospice’s Light Up a Life service annually since her father Bill's passing in 2015.

    Bill was cared for by the hospice in the last three weeks of his life.

    Ms Crewe said:

    “Since attending the first time, several friends and family now attend, and it has become a staple within our family’s calendar. It was so poignant that we haven’t missed a service since.”


    The Light Up Life event at St Michael's Hospice is now an established Christmas tradition for the Crewe family.

    The service will start at the hospice on Saturday from 4pm.
