The Tree of Light

Remember and Donate 

The Rotary Club of Evesham Tree of Light provides an opportunity to remember loved ones at Christmas and to donate to charity. The tree, a 90' high Redwood, stands by the River Avon at Evesham's Workman Bridge. It was first lit, with over 1000 lights, in 1999 and its prominent position allows it to be seen from miles around. The Tree of Light campaign raises around £15,000 a year for good causes in our community. See below for more details and a donation form.

Remembering your loved ones at Christmas

Christmas is a time for families, for remembering, for celebrating and for giving. It is also a time when the loss of a loved one can be most keenly felt. The name and the symbolism of our Rotary Club Tree of Light are reminders that there is light and hope in the bleakest circumstances. The Tree of Light allows sponsors to remember loved ones at Christmas-time while at the same time raising funds for charities and worthwhile causes which support others who are in need.
Everyone who chooses to donate receives a personal thank you card from the Tree of Light showing the names of those remembered. The names are published in the Evesham Journal and in the Tree of Light Book of Remembrance which is displayed on this website and in the Town Library over Christmas and New Year.

Raising Funds for local Charities       

Over the years we have raised over £265,000 which has been donated to charities and good causes. Most of them are local to the Evesham area or support this area. Some of these are shown on the link below.
The donations are generally for the overall running costs of the charity, but we also invite charities to apply for funding for a specific project or need.
This is typical of the comments we receive:

You Turn Centre
"With the support of the Tree of Light, the generous donation enabled You Turn to organise a narrow-boat trip along the River Avon. This trip enabled a much-needed break after the stresses of isolation and lock-down. The young people said it was the best trip they had been on. We are extremely grateful for the donation and support from the Tree of Light.  Such a fantastic way to support our community."

The Switch-On: Thursday 28th November 2024, 6pm for 6.30, Evesham Methodist Church forecourt & Workman Bridge.

Join us before the 6.30 Switch-On for a foretaste of Christmas with mince pies and fruit punch and, after the tree is lit, carol singing. We are very grateful to County Councillor Emma Stokes, who has once again arranged for Workman Bridge to be closed to traffic for the short period of the switch-on. Further details of the event will be added here shortly.

STOP PRESS! The Battle of Evesham team had to cancel the Lantern Parade this year because of the terrible weather, so they have joined forces with Evesham Rotary Club to combine the illumination of the Tree of Light with the Lantern Parade.  Another very good reason to come on Thursday at 6pm and enjoy the Tree of Light and the beautiful Lantern Parade. 

The lights get their yearly check-up before installation.

The 16 strings of lights have had their annual check-up and, although it is clear that several older strings are approaching the end of their lives, we have a full, safe set installed and ready for lighting up on the 28th.
