Story

This page is intended to make donating easy for those people unable to come to Melksham to visit our Christmas lights display at 1 Longford Road (SN12 6DH) in person.

We would love you to visit in person but if you do we suggest you allow enough time to savour the lights on other houses in the road, many of which are raising money for various charities. Last but definitely not least, don't miss our magnificent town lights!

The media have generally been very supportive but a few seem to have lost sight of exactly what this is all about so I've produced a website and Facebook page to tell it as it really is! 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

About the charity

Dorothy House Hospice Care supports 1,500 families affected by cancer and other life threatening conditions every year. It is the only charity providing free specialist nursing care at home for people with life-threatening illness in Bath,Wiltshire and Somerset. Most patients are looked after in their own homes, but short-term care, out-patient and day patient services are provided at the hospice in Winsley. All care is provided free of charge, but Dorothy House receives only about 30% of its funding from the NHS. This year, after NHS funding, more than £7,000 a day must be raised to continue to provide these services.
