Memory Tree

Memory Tree

Make a dedication to a loved one on our Memory Tree.

St Elizabeth Hospice invites you to dedicate a leaf or decorative rock on our Memory Tree to a loved one. Our Memory Tree is made of a solid hand-carved bronze trunk and branches and decorated with coloured gold, silver and copper leaves with a foundation of bronze rocks.

Each leaf and rock is engraved with the name of a loved one who has died, making a poignant focal point within the hospice building, symbolising the many precious memories you have.

The Memory Tree is situated in the heart of the hospice in Ipswich, located by Reflections, our dedicated quiet room.

The name of the person you are remembering will be engraved on a coloured silver, gold or copper leaf or bronze rock, and displayed on our Memory Tree for one, two or five years.

At the end of the display period, you will be given the opportunity to renew the display of your precious leaf or rock, or have it returned for you to keep.

We are happy to discuss payment options with you, if you would like to dedicate or renew a leaf on the Memory Tree in instalments. Give us a call on 01473 723600 or email fundraising@stelizabethhospice.org.uk

St Elizabeth Hospice Tribute Fund is a fund set up in memory of your loved one and is a wonderful way to honour and celebrate the life of someone special. It is a great thing to share with your family and friends and anyone can contribute to it. Once the fund has been set up, you can upload photos and videos, sharing your thoughts and memories.

Seeing a Tribute Fund grow can give such a sense of achievement and be a powerful and positive way to keep a loved one’s memory alive. There are so many ways to grow your fund and it can be tailored to suit you, your family and your friends. You could even use the donation you are making for a leaf or rock on the Memory Tree to open your fund.
