Bodyline with Guy Body All welcome at remembrance service

For the first time since 2019, Harbour Hospice is holding a remembrance service.

And in a break from tradition, it is inviting the wider community to attend, not just those with family members who have gone through end-of-life care at the hospice.

The service will be at St George’s Presbyterian Church in Takapuna, on Sunday 23 July at 2pm.

Anyone from the wider North Shore community, who would like to remember a loved one, is welcome to attend.

Hospice said the open invitation was partly because it was mindful of those who had lost someone during the Covid-19 pandemic and had been unable to hold a proper funeral, and those who were unable to attend an important funeral.

The service was designed to be inclusive to people of all faiths, or no particular faith. Attendees will be invited to place a photograph of a loved one on the altar if they wish, or light a candle in remembrance.

Afternoon tea provided by Harbour Hospice will follow.
