Tavistock Lions Trees of Light

The Trees of Light will be turned on at a short service at 7.00pm on Thursday 3rd December in Bedford Square. The money raised will go to local charities, which this year are: 

• Tavistock Memory Café,

• St. Luke’s Hospice,

• The Chestnut Appeal

• The Motor Neurone Disease Association (Plymouth)

 This fundraising project was started in 1999 when the club agreed with Tavistock Town Council to erect a large Christmas Tree on the front of the Town Hall which would be covered in lights sponsored by members of the public in memory of departed love ones. 

Over £184,000 has been collected to date. It has become so popular that the number of trees has been increased to three to cater for all the light bulbs.
