This Christmas, Mountbatten Hampshire invites you to remember and celebrate loved ones by dedicating a light on our remembrance tree.

Dedicating a light is simple.

From Saturday, 1 November, donate and dedicate a light on our website.

Your loved one’s light will shine on our remembrance tree and be added to the virtual tree, with their name displayed during the Light up a Life event at Mountbatten Hampshire on Sunday, 14 December at 4pm.

Teresa Scott, who is dedicating a light in memory of her dad, Colin, who was cared for by Mountbatten’s teams, shared:

“The care my dad — and our family — received from Mountbatten when he was dying made the saddest time of our lives bearable.

“For me, lighting a candle is not just a tribute to him but also a way of remembering the incredible nurses and staff who looked after us all."
