North west Hospice will hold their annual Light-Up-aLife event which will take place on Saturday, December 2 at 5pm in our Garden of Memories at Cleveragh Park, Sligo when the lights on their Memory Tree will be lit for the Christmas Season. Everyone is welcome so please come and join us and let’s remember those we have loved and lost this Christmas together.”
