PENDLESIDE Hospice's Light Up a Life campaign has already raised more than £19,000 and a donation of three Christmas trees contributed to the success.

Both Pendle and Burnley Borough Councils and Colne Noyna Rotary Club sponsored the installation of the trees in the Hospice grounds which are currently covered in the campaign's coloured light bulbs.

The Councils donated £300 each which bought the trees and the Rotary Club arranged the delivery and planting of the trees with help from Barnfield Construction.

More than 2,400 bulbs have now been sponsored and the Hospice has had its best Light Up A Life campaign since it was launched three years ago.
