Trees of Love 2025
Thank you so much to everyone who joined us to remember someone special with a dove on the Trees of Love.
Together, you have raised £49,400, and counting for local hospice care!
The festive season is a special time for many of us, but it can also be the hardest when you are missing someone you love.
We were delighted to welcome hundreds of you to the remembrance services at the Canterbury, Thanet and Ashford Hospices, as well as in local churches and crematoriums throughout east Kent. Thank you for taking the time to mark the season in memory of your loved one with a dove on the Trees of Love, supporting the compassionate care we provide everyday.
The Trees will remain in the hospice grounds, and in the churches and crematoriums until the end of December, so you can visit your special dedication whenever you wish.
You can still dedicate a dove to place on your own tree at home, by clicking below or contacting Supporter Relations on 01227 782062.
From all of us at Pilgrims Hospices, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a peaceful 2026.
