THERE will be three 'Tree of Lights' switching on ceremonies this year. 

The Tree of Lights events allow people to come together to remember loved ones that have died, whether at St David's Hospice in Llandudno or Anglesey or not. 

The hospice will stage three events - in Rhos on Sea and Llangefni and at Llandudno’s St David’s Hospice.

As in previously years, the charity is working with Rhos on Sea Rotary Club to offer the Tree of Lights event in Rhos on Sea. They will work with the Llangefni Rotary Club for the Llangefni event. 

Rhian Jacobs, Event Manger for St David’s, said: “The Tree of Lights events are very special to so many people in our community. This year we are pleased to be able to offer an additional event at our Llandudno hospice. Once again we will be working with the Rotary clubs to offer Tree of Lights events in Rhos on Sea and Llangefni.

“Each event will give people the opportunity to remember their loved ones, and if they wish they can dedicate a light on our trees to them."

Gavin Davies, Rhos on Sea Rotary President, said: "Rhos on Sea Rotary are looking forward to our 24th Tree of Lights Ceremony.

"The promenade works will have been completed by then and we are hopeful that we will be able to conduct the ceremony in the normal setting.
