The popular Lights of Love will shine brightly this year again on the Christmas tree in Warwick's Market Place.

The campaign - which celebrates those we have lost - is organised by Warwick Rotary Club in association with Warwick Town Council.

Every year the tree raises money for the Mayor's charities and Myton Hospices, and last year raised £2,000.

If you would like to place a card on the tree, you can find a leaflet in shops around town.

This can be returned to Warwick Visitor Centre in Castle Street, Warwick Post office, Torrey's or Claridges of Warwick.

The campaign starts with the illumination of the tree at the Victorian evening on November 28 and there will be a carol service of dedication on December 15 accompanied by the Community Band and the Emscote and All Saints Junior school choir.

Cards will stay on the tree until the New Year.

"When so many of us have lost loved ones, it is comforting to know that they have not been forgotten," organisers said.

"Names of those remembered will be shown next to the tree, and on the Rotary website."
