Light up a Life in memory of someone you love โœจ

Wintertime can be a time of treasured memories, when we think of the people who mean so much to us, including those who are no longer here.

Our Light up a Life appeal is an opportunity to remember someone you love by dedicating a light in their memory. Every dedication is a special way to celebrate a life, share a precious memory and help support local hospice care for people and families across our community.

Your dedication will help Blythe House Hospice continue providing free care and support to people facing a life-limiting illness, and those closest to them, when they need it most. ๐Ÿ’™

Save the date: Youโ€™re also warmly invited to join us for our Light up a Life service at Blythe House Hospice from 6.30pm on Monday 14th December (doors open at 6pm).

Thereโ€™ll be time for reflection and remembrance, followed by refreshments and mince pies, with juice and snacks for children. Everyone is welcome, whether or not you or your family have been supported by Blythe House.

Dedicate a light in memory of someone special and help us make a difference this Christmas: https://blythehousehospice.org.uk/light-up-a-life/

We're sending grateful thanks to DJS Research for taking on an incredible 200-mile walking challenge and raising an amazing ยฃ840 for Blythe House Hospice! ๐Ÿ’™

The team took on the Greater Manchester Ringway Relay, completing the 200-mile route over 20 stages in 20 days, from Monday 7th to Saturday 26th September. Starting and finishing at their office in Strines, the challenge was a brilliant test of teamwork, determination and stamina!

Weโ€™re so grateful to DJS Research for their ongoing support of Blythe House Hospice and for choosing to raise vital funds to help us continue providing free hospice care to local people and their families. It takes around ยฃ2.6 million each year to provide our services. For 7 in every 10 people we care for, that support is made possible by our community, through fundraising like this, our shops, events, and gifts in Wills.

Calling all local teachers, education staff and nursery practitioners! ๐ŸŽ„

Could your school, nursery or pre-school help local families this Christmas by taking part in our Merry Mile? ๐ŸŽ…๐Ÿ‘Ÿ

The Merry Mile is a fun, festive and inclusive run or walk that gets children moving whilst raising money for Blythe House Hospice, helping us support children and young people affected by a loved one's life-limiting illness, or the death of someone they love.

Itโ€™s easy to get involved:
๐ŸŽ„ Choose any date in November or December
๐Ÿ‘Ÿ Plan a festive mile that works for your setting - whether thatโ€™s a walk around the playground, a dash across the school field, or a loop around your local park
๐ŸŽ… Get everyone involved, dress up in festive outfits and have fun raising money for local families.

And weโ€™ll help you along the way! We can provide a short, engaging assembly about the hospice, sponsorship materials, festive headwear and even a visit from Blythe Bear! ๐Ÿป

What does spiritual care mean to you? ๐Ÿ’™

Spiritual care is about much more than religion. Itโ€™s about having the time and space to talk about what matters most, explore difficult feelings, find comfort and make sense of lifeโ€™s challenges.

At Blythe House Hospice, our volunteer Spiritual Care Team offers a listening ear and compassionate support to patients, families and those close to them. Whether youโ€™re facing a difficult diagnosis, navigating bereavement or simply need someone to talk to, our team is here to listen without judgement.

To mark Spiritual Care Week this week (18 to 24th October), our volunteers have shared their thoughts on the importance of spiritual and pastoral care, and how a little time, understanding and compassion can make a difference.

Read their reflections in our latest blog: https://blythehousehospice.org.uk/a-space-to-reflect-talk-and-feel-supported/

A huge thank you to Sarah, Sophie, Beccy, Lucy and Nathan, who took on the Great North Run last month in support of Blythe House Hospice!๐Ÿƒ

Together, they raised an incredible ยฃ3,151, which will fund 86 hours of Hospice at Home care for patients who wish to remain in the comfort and safety of their own home at the end of their life.

Every mile they ran and every pound they raised will make a real difference to local patients and their families, helping us provide compassionate care when it's needed most.๐Ÿ’™
