Light up a Life 2019
As Christmas approaches, we look back on happy memories, but it can be tinged with sadness. We understand that it can be a difficult time of year when you are parted from your loved ones.
Our annual Light up a Life appeal is unique as it gives you the opportunity to remember your lost loved ones in a positive way. Your participation is not only a symbol of your remembrance but also a memento of the support you are giving to those in need in your community this Christmas and New Year.
Last year’s Light up a Life enabled 41 patients and their families to be cared for. Therefore, the donations received are vital to guarantee the specialist care needed within your community, this festive season. Every £900 raised from Light up a Life 2019 supports one patient and their family, so that they can be cared for at home, this Christmas.
Thank you for your continued support.
Western Power Distribution
Light up a Life is kindly sponsored by Western Power Distribution (WPD), the electricity distribution network for the South West, Wales and the Midlands.
When you’re very ill and receiving St Luke’s specialist care at home, it’s so important to know there’s help at hand in the event of a power cut. This is even more vital if you’re reliant on medical equipment, such as an oxygen machine, that relies on electricity.
As most healthcare professionals will know, WPD provides a FREE Priority Register Service to ensure people who are elderly, very ill or disabled receive priority help when there’s a power cut.
Once you’ve registered, you’ll have the peace of mind that comes from knowing you’ll receive advance warning of any planned interruptions to power. And – if there’s an unplanned power cut – a phone number on which you can get straight through, plus information updates as quickly as possible.
