Trees of Light to shine again in Leamington and Whitnash for The Myton Hospices

Trees of Light will shine in Leamington and Whitnash to raise money for The Myton Hospices over Christmas again this year.

The Royal Leamington Spa Rotary Club’s annual Christmas fundraising campaign will be officially launched with switch-on events for both trees outside St Margaret’s church in Whitnash on Saturday November 18 and Leamington Town Hall Sunday November 19.

The Leamington Rotarians are extremely proud of the event, which began in 2001, and they are looking forward to the total amount it has raised for charity since then surpassing £100,000 this year.

President Barry Andrews said: “Please remember your lost or absent loved ones and donate to The Myton Hospices, who freely give their warm-hearted care to people living with life-limiting illnesses and their families.

"This means they need to raise over ten million pounds this year.

“I ask you to support the Trees of Light to enable the essential work Myton does to continue.”
