The Light up a Life Service Thursday 7th December Ticket sales and dedication open September We invite you to join us on Thursday 7th December for an evening of candle-lit remembrance at St Mary’s Church, Rawtenstall. Tickets are free for those who have remembered loved ones but it is not compulsory to attend the service. A Brass Band will play alongside local school children who will be singing carols during the service.
