You are warmly invited to join us for Candles at Christmas. As the festive season draws near this will be a chance to pause, reflect and remember the life of someone special and the memories we continue to cherish.
We do hope you will be able to join us for one of our Candles at Christmas services taking place at the Addenbrooke’s Hospital Chapel on Tuesday 2nd December 2025 at 3pm and 6pm. Our services will feature music, comforting readings and lighting of candles in honour of loved ones. They are suitable for people of all faiths and none, and will be followed by festive refreshments. You are also most welcome to bring along family and friends.
The service is free to attend but you will need to reserve your seats by clicking the button above. You can also suggest a piece of music or make a donation.
If you cannot attend the services but would still like to have your loved ones name read out, suggest music or make a donation please still RSVP. As Christmas approaches, we really do value your support, which makes a huge difference and helps us continue to provide the best possible care where it’s needed most.
We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday 2nd December and if you would like further information or have any questions, please get in touch with Claire at claire.smith@act4addenbrookes.org.uk or on 01223 609581.
