SUMMARY:Light up a Star
DESCRIPTION:Together\, lets celebrate the lives of those we want to remember. \n  \nPlease join us in celebrating and remembering the lives of your loved ones at our Light up a Star service. This ‘Light up a Life’ remembrance service will include poems\, music and a moment of reflection as we all come together to light lanterns in memory of a loved one. The service will be followed by light refreshments\, a Christmas stall and a chance to talk and connect with each other. \n  \nTickets are free for families currently supported by Shooting Star\, please contact supportercare@shootingstar.org.uk for a code for Eventbrite. For other guests tickets are £5 (free for 12 and under) and include a Remembrance Lantern. All groups that book tickets before the 1st of November will also receive a complimentary Memory Star Decoration. Please note that star decorations and lanterns are provided per group booking\, not per individual ticket. \n  \nYour Remembrance Lantern will be posted to you ahead of the event. We would encourage you to decorate your lantern in memory of your loved one and bring it with you to the service. \n  \nIf you are unable to join us on the day the event will also be livestreamed on the All Saints Church Hampton YouTube page\, and will be available to watch later. Additionally\, if you would like to light a lantern at home instead of attending then please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us via supportercare@shootingstar.org.uk. \n  \nThere will also be an opportunity to purchase Christmas cards and knitted novelties at the end of the service. The knitted novelties have been generously made for us by supporters and all proceeds will go towards Shooting Star Children’s Hospices. \n  \nAs you may already know\, it costs £14 million a year to run Shooting Star Children’s Hospices. Just 31% of our funding comes from the government\, so we rely on our supporters’ generosity to keep our vital care service running. If you would like to make a donation\, we will have collection cans and card machines available on the night. We understand that this may not be feasible for all and encourage you to donate what you are comfortable giving. If you would like your donation to be added as a contribution to an existing tribute fund\, please mention your loved one’s name when booking. \n  \nThank you for all your continued support and for making such a difference to the work that we do. \n  \nPlease note that the venue is in the ULEZ zone. You can check if your car is compliant on the Transport for London website. \n  \n\n\n
