Tree of Remembrance at Tescos, Lisburn

The Rotary Club of Lisburn  with the assistance of Tescos have erected a Tree of Remembrance at the main Tescos in Lisburn.

The tree will be manned by volunteers from Lisburn Rotary Club, from 10 am on the 11th December every day  until the 23rd of December.

The Tree will be opened by the Mayor of Lisburn and Castlereagh  Councillor Thomas Beckett at 4.30pm on the 11th December when the Mayor will place the first ribbon.

People will write a message in memory of someone special  relative or friend, on a yellow ribbon and this will be hung on the tree.

There will be no charge  but donations made will collected and distributed to Charities supported by the Rotary  Club, namely Cancer Fund for  Children, Mencap, British Heart Foundation Diabetes UK and other smaller local charities

This  is a chance to remember your loved ones in a simple but poignant way in the midst of the Christmas rush by placing a ribbon on the tree.
