Lights for Love Website Cover
If you have ever attended one of our lights for love services; you will know how important they are to our supporters and how touching the dedications they make are every year. Their dedications are displayed in book of remembrance in Rochester Cathedral over the Dickens weekend. In order to help people find their dedications or answer a question they have about Lights for Love, we need volunteers to man these books during this very busy weekend in Rochester.
You need to be available on either on the 2nd or 3rd of December and able to take a shift of a few hours during this weekend.
Details for the day are listed below but if you have any questions at all please do let us know.

Start Time:                        10am – 12.30pm - Morning Shift or 1pm - 3pm Afternoon Shift - TBC

"We combine our love of this event, as we love hearing supporters hospice stories while they are writing their stars to hang on the trees, with our love of browsing the Rochester Christmas markets. It such a fabulous time of year to help out."
