Memory Tree

Sometimes we need a lasting tribute to our loved ones that we can see and hold.

Our Memory tree is a beautiful, hand-crafted, copper tree which sits in a peaceful area of the Hospice gardens, surrounded by attractive trees, shrubs and flowers. Every copper leaf and flower on the tree is dedicated to the memory of a family member, partner or friend. They remain a wonderful and enduring tribute to those lives we want to remember and celebrate.

For a donation, you can dedicate one of these lasting mementoes to someone you hold dear, whether they have been a patient with us or not. The leaf or flower will be engraved with their name and placed on the tree, which you can visit as often as you wish.

You will have the choice of placing your leaf or flower on the Memory tree for one, two or five years, after which time we will send it to you in a special presentation box. Or if you prefer we can arrange to send your newly engraved leaf or flower to your home, to keep where it can be seen and held every day.

Know that when you dedicate a leaf or flower in memory of your loved one, you will be helping to raise vital funds for Heart of Kent Hospice, enabling us to help more patients and their families.
