Tapping House is deeply honoured to invite the West Norfolk community to take part in its cherished Light Up a Life Campaign this December.
For more than 25 years, this special tradition has offered a precious opportunity for individuals and families to pause, reflect, celebrate, and remember those they love who are no longer with them during this meaningful time of year.

Throughout December, Light Up a Life brings our community together through a series of heartfelt services, held both at the Hospice and across West Norfolk:
A Light of Hope for Every Family
The Light Up a Life services offer a peaceful and reflective space for remembrance during the winter season. This treasured campaign centres on the symbolic act of bringing warmth and light to the community—helping everyone feel connected to the compassion and care that Tapping House provides every day.
This year, participants are invited to make a donation in memory of a loved one. Every contribution directly supports Tapping House in continuing to deliver its outstanding, free-of-charge care to patients and families across the West Norfolk community.
Ensuring Support During Challenging Times
With hospices across the country facing increasing financial pressures, the funds raised through Light Up a Life are more vital than ever. Every donation helps ensure that Tapping House can continue to offer the compassionate, rest-of-life care that patients need and deserve.
Chloe Martin, Ward Manager at Tapping House, shares what this time of year means for the hospice community:
“Working at the hospice during December is a privilege. We strive to make this time as special as possible for our patients and their loved ones—decorating rooms, organising celebrations, and arranging for families to share a meal together, creating cherished memories during what can be a very difficult period.
Light Up a Life is a wonderful way to support Tapping House. By taking part, you’re showing your care for the families we’re looking after—whether they’re making precious memories with the time they have together or remembering a loved one no longer with us.”
Join Us and Light Up a Life
The public is warmly invited to attend one of our Light Up a Life services and make a personal dedication in honour or memory of someone special. Together, we can help Tapping House continue to shine a light of comfort, compassion, and hope for all those who rely on its care.
