Church's festive tree festival for hospice


Chestnut Tree House is the only children’s hospice in Sussex caring for children with life limiting and life threatening illnesses and relies solely on donations.
The plan for the festival is to fill the church with dozens of real Christmas trees that have been kindly sponsored by local businesses and individuals. All the trees will be beautifully lit with white LED lights and decorated to a Christmas Carol and Stars theme by village groups and sponsors creating a Spiritual and Magical experience.
