The tree of light is a very visual way of remembering the loved ones that so many of us have lost in the past.
Sadly there seems to be no end in sight and the services of the likes of the Myton Hospices are going to be needed for many years to come.
“We in Whitnash are very fortunate to have this tree outside our wonderful church, in full view of all who pass through our lovely little town.

“I personally work with the Myton Hospices on their fund raising events and know how passionate the fund raisers are at whatever event it is.
It costs over £8 million a year to run the Hospices and this would never be achieved without the generosity of the general public and the voluntary groups, such as the Rotary Club, along with their Trees of Light.”
The lights on the the Whitnash tree and the Leamington tree, outside the town hall, shine throughout the festive period in memory of absent or deceased loved ones.
