Make a loved one’s memory shine on

Buy a globe in remembrance of a loved one at the Highway Hospice's annual Tree of Light ceremony.

EVERY year in December the Highway Hospice hosts the special Tree of Light event.

Each globe is purchased in memory of a loved one who is no longer with us.

The unique ceremony is one of the non-profit organisation’s most important appeals of the year.

It will take place at Jameson Park on Friday, 7 December from 6pm and Highway residents are invited to take part in the beautiful and touching ceremony.

There will be food stalls but the public can bring along a picnic basket, blanket and an umbrella, just in case. Tents will also be set up for shelter.

The lighting of the tree will be at 7.45pm and more than 9 000 globes will light up the night. The tree will remain on throughout December.

“Corporates are invited to sponsor the star on the top of the tree for R10 000 as a shining symbol of your love, care and concern for our community. Your company name will have a special page at the front of our Book of Remembrance and will receive mention on all our social media as well as being mentioned on the night,” said the Highway Hospice’s Heather Walker.
