LUDLOW Rotary's Tree of Light is now ablaze with lights in memory of loved ones, marking special occasions, or expressing good wishes for friends or family.
The Tree of Light together and strings of lights in Castle Gardens were switched on by deputy mayor, Councillor Beverley Waite, who paid tribute to the work of Ludlow Rotary in championing community life, on November 25.
A selection of carols performed by the Rocksprings Community Choir added a festive element, enjoyed by a crowd of well over 100 who enthusiastically joined in.
The Tree of Light will remain lit until Twelfth Night on January 6 and it is not too late to add a dedication. All those received by December 13 will be published in the Christmas edition of the Ludlow Advertiser. A complete list of dedications received by Twelfth Night will be recorded on the Ludlow Rotary Club website.
Forms containing full information on how to submit a dedication may be obtained from St Laurence’s Parish Church, Nock Deighton Estate Agents, or downloaded from www.ludlowrotaryclub.org.uk.
A minimum donation of £5 per dedication is invited with all funds received earmarked by Ludlow Rotary Club for local community projects.
Last year some £900 was raised through the Tree of Light.
