We’re pleased to announce the return of Light a Candle this Christmas!

Taking part in this Christmas’s Light a Candle gives you the opportunity to create online memorials throughout the festive period.

Christmas is a special time to celebrate with family and friends, and our virtual candles are a thoughtful way to pay tribute to loved ones who are no longer with us.

We'll be sharing virtual candles on our page between 15 and 21 December. There's no cost for you or your family to get involved and create an online memorial.
We look forward to sharing your memorials from 15 December.

Once, I dreamed about tomorrow
About laughter, traveling, growing
About all the places life could lead
With you beside me 🌅

But now my dreams drift backward
Like dandelion seeds on a soft wind
Carrying me into memory
Where you still exist

The past becomes warm again
Filled with your voice
Your smile, your footsteps
Your presence that time stole

I watch the seeds float upward
Little flecks of light in the dusk
And I wonder if they reach you
Wherever you are now 🌬️

Nostalgia wraps around me
Gentle but heavy
A reminder that love endures
Even through longing

I used to dream forward
Now I dream to remember
Because memory is the only place
I can still find you

— Memories of You
